MEAI (5-methoxy-2-aminoindane or 5-MeO-AI or Chaperon) is a recreational drug and binge drinking prevention drug, first chemically described in 1980,[1][2] and first pharmacologically described in a peer reviewed paper in 2017 by David Nutt et al.,[3] followed by another in February 2018 which detailed pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and metabolism of MEAI.[4] In 2018, a company in the United States began offering an MEAI-based drink called "Pace".[5]

MEAI was an early candidate of alcohol replacement drugs that came to market during a late 2010s movement to replace alcohol with less-toxic alternatives spearheaded by British psychopharmacologist David Nutt. MEAI was made commercially available online in the United States as "Pace".
