Piperazines such as 1-benzylpiperazine (BZP), 1-(3-trifluromethylphenyl)piperazine (3-TFMPP), and 1-(3-chlorophenyl)piperazine (3-CPP) have become recent drugs of abuse. With stimulant effects comparable to amphetamines but with a lower potency and differential global scheduling status, they have been sold as a supposed legal
