| generic = Mescal Bean
| brand = ''Sophora secundiflora''. Texas mountain laurel, frijolillo
| classes = Plant Medicine, Phantastica

| mechanism = Active alkaloid is cytisine, a nicotinic acetylcholine receptor agonist. NOT a classical 5-HT2A psychedelic.
| intro = The Mescal Bean is the seed of ''Sophora secundiflora'', a small Fabaceae tree of the US southwest and northern Mexico. Caches in Texas rock shelters confirm continuous human use for at least 10,000 years. Likely predecessor to [[Peyote]] in the Plains Indian Red Bean Cult before mescaline was discovered; the name "mescal" was later transferred to peyote (with the unrelated agave). Cytisine is closely related to varenicline and has been used for smoking cessation.
