In some embodiments, R.sub.7, R.sub.8, R.sub.9, and R.sub.10 are each independently selected from hydrogen, methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, tert-butyl, and isobutyl. In other embodiments, R.sub.7, R.sub.8, R.sub.9, and R.sub.10 are each independently hydrogen, methyl, or ethyl.

    [0097] In formula (II), R.sub.11 is selected from hydrogen, C.sub.1-C.sub.6 alkyl, C.sub.2-C.sub.6 alkenyl, C(O)R.sub.5, C(O)OR.sub.5, or SO.sub.2R.sub.5. R.sub.11 may be a straight chain or branched C.sub.1-C.sub.6 alkyl, for example a straight chain C.sub.1-C.sub.6 alkyl, or a straight chain or branched C.sub.2-C.sub.6 alkenyl, for example allyl, 2-butenyl, etc. In some embodiments, R.sub.11 may be a straight chain or branched C.sub.1-C.sub.4 alkyl, for example a straight chain C.sub.1-C.sub.4 alkyl, or a C.sub.2-C.sub.4 alkenyl. R.sub.11 may be selected from methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, cyclopropyl, n-butyl, isobutyl, or tert-butyl. In other embodiments, R.sub.11 may be methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, isobutyl, and tert-butyl. In some embodiments, R.sub.11 may be selected from C(O)R.sub.5, C(O)OR.sub.5, or SO.sub.2R.sub.5, wherein R.sub.5 is a straight chain or branched C.sub.1-C.sub.6 alkyl or a substituted or unsubstituted aryl. When R.sub.5 is a straight chain or branched C.sub.1-C.sub.6 alkyl, it may be a straight chain or branched C.sub.1-C.sub.4 alkyl, for example a straight chain C.sub.1-C.sub.4 alkyl. In some embodiments, R.sub.5 is selected from methyl, ethyl, n-propyl or n-butyl, and for example is methyl or ethyl. R.sub.5 may also be a substituted or unsubstituted aryl. An aryl is a 6- to 14-membered aromatic ring, preferably a 6- to 10-membered aromatic ring and includes polycyclic ring systems in which two or more carbon atoms are common to adjoining rings where at least one ring is aromatic. Examples of aryl groups include, but are not limited to phenyl, naphthyl, anthracenyl and phenantherenyl. An aryl group may be substituted with one or more straight chain or branched C.sub.1-C.sub.4 alkyl groups, straight chain or branched C.sub.1-C.sub.4 hydroxyalkyl groups, hydroxyl groups or halo groups (e.g. F, Cl, I or Br). When an aryl group is substituted with one or more straight chain or branched C.sub.1-C.sub.4 alkyl groups the group may be methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, isobutyl or tert-butyl or the group may be methyl, ethyl, isopropyl, or tert-butyl.

    [0180] An effective amount or a therapeutically effective amount of a quaternary tryptamine compound of the disclosure is generally in the range of about 0.1 to about 100 mg daily (oral dose), of about 0.1 to about 50 mg daily (oral dose) of about 0.25 to about 25 mg daily (oral dose), of about 0.1 to about 5 mg daily (oral dose) or of about 0.5 to about 2.5 mg daily (oral dose). The actual amount required for treatment of any particular patient may depend upon a variety of factors including, for example, the disease being treated and its severity; the specific pharmaceutical composition employed; the age, body weight, general health, sex, and diet of the patient; the mode of administration; the time of administration; the route of administration; and the rate of excretion; the duration of the treatment; any drugs used in combination or coincidental with the specific compound employed; and other such factors well known in the medical arts. These factors are discussed in Goodman and Gilman's The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics, Tenth Edition, A. Gilman, J. Hardman and L. Limbird, eds., McGraw-Hill Press, 155-173 (2001), which is incorporated herein by reference. A quaternary tryptamine compound of the disclosure and pharmaceutical compositions containing it may be used in combination with other agents that are generally administered to a patient being treated for psychological and other disorders discussed above. They may also be co-formulated with one or more of such agents in a single pharmaceutical composition.

    [0181] Depending on the type of pharmaceutical composition, the pharmaceutically acceptable carrier may be chosen from any one or a combination of carriers known in the art. The choice of the pharmaceutically acceptable carrier depends upon the pharmaceutical form and the desired method of administration to be used. Exemplary carriers include those that do not substantially alter the structure or activity of the quaternary tryptamine compounds of the disclosure or produce undesirable biological effects or otherwise interact in a deleterious manner with any other component(s) of the pharmaceutical composition.

    [0182] The pharmaceutical compositions of the disclosure may be prepared by methods know in the pharmaceutical formulation art, for example, see Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, 18th Ed., (Mack Publishing Company, Easton, Pa., 1990), which is incorporated herein by reference. In a solid dosage form, a quaternary tryptamine compound of the disclosure may be admixed with at least one pharmaceutically acceptable excipient such as, for example, sodium citrate or dicalcium phosphate or (a) fillers or extenders, such as, for example, starches, lactose, sucrose, glucose, mannitol, and silicic acid, (b) binders, such as, for example, cellulose derivatives, starch, alignates, gelatin, polyvinylpyrrolidone, sucrose, and gum acacia, (c) humectants, such as, for example, glycerol, (d) disintegrating agents, such as, for example, agar-agar, calcium carbonate, potato or tapioca starch, alginic acid, croscarmellose sodium, complex silicates, and sodium carbonate, (e) solution retarders, such as, for example, paraffin, (f) absorption accelerators, such as, for example, quaternary ammonium compounds, (g) wetting agents, such as, for example, cetyl alcohol, and glycerol monostearate, magnesium stearate and the like, (h) adsorbents, such as, for example, kaolin and bentonite, and (i) lubricants, such as, for example, talc, calcium stearate, magnesium stearate, solid polyethylene glycols, sodium lauryl sulfate, or mixtures thereof. In the case of capsules, tablets, and pills, the dosage forms may also comprise buffering agents. In some embodiments, the excipient is not water. In some embodiments, the excipient is not a solvent (e.g., EtOH, diethyl ether, ethyl acetate, or hydrocarbon-based solvents (e.g., hexanes). In some embodiments, the dosage form is substantially free of water and/or solvents, for example less than about 5% water by mass, less than 2% water by mass, less than 1% water by mass, less than 0.5% water by mass, or less than 0.1% water by mass.

    [0183] Excipients or pharmaceutically acceptable adjuvants known in the pharmaceutical formulation art may also be used in the pharmaceutical compositions of the disclosure. These include, but are not limited to, preserving, wetting, suspending, sweetening, flavoring, perfuming, emulsifying, and dispensing agents. Prevention of the action of microorganisms may be ensured by inclusion of various antibacterial and antifungal agents, for example, parabens, chlorobutanol, phenol, sorbic acid, and the like. It may also be desirable to include isotonic agents, for example, sugars, sodium chloride, and the like. If desired, a pharmaceutical composition of the disclosure may also contain minor amounts of auxiliary substances such as wetting or emulsifying agents, pH buffering agents, antioxidants, and the like, such as, for example, citric acid, sorbitan monolaurate, triethanolamine oleate, butylated hydroxytoluene, etc.

    [0184] Solid dosage forms as described above may be prepared with coatings and shells, such as enteric coatings and others well known in the art. They may contain pacifying agents and can also be of such composition that they release the active compound or compounds in a certain part of the intestinal tract in a delayed manner. Non-limiting examples of embedded compositions that may be used are polymeric substances and waxes. The active compounds may also be in microencapsulated form, if appropriate, with one or more of the above-mentioned excipients.

    [0185] Suspensions, in addition to the active compounds, may contain suspending agents, such as, for example, ethoxylated isostearyl alcohols, polyoxyethylene sorbitol and sorbitan esters, microcrystalline cellulose, aluminum metahydroxide, bentonite, agar-agar and tragacanth, or mixtures of these substances, and the like.

    [0186] Solid dosage forms for oral administration, which includes capsules, tablets, pills, powders, and granules, may be used. In such solid dosage forms, the active compound may be mixed with at least one inert, pharmaceutically acceptable excipient (also known as a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier).

    [0187] Administration of a quaternary tryptamine compound of the disclosure in pure form or in an appropriate pharmaceutical composition may be carried out via any of the accepted modes of administration or agents for serving similar utilities. Thus, administration may be, for example, orally, buccally, nasally, parenterally (intravenous, intramuscular, or subcutaneous), topically, transdermally, intravaginally, intravesically, or intrasystemically, in the form of solid, semi-solid, lyophilized powder, or liquid dosage forms, such as, for example, tablets, suppositories, pills, soft elastic and hard gelatin capsules, powders, solutions, suspensions, or aerosols, or the like, such as, for example, in unit dosage forms suitable for simple administration of precise dosages. One route of administration may be oral administration, using a convenient daily dosage regimen that can be adjusted according to the degree of severity of the disease-state to be treated.
