>>5729891>some kind of amphetamine>methylphenidatethe above is still wrong. methylphenidate are not in the amphetamine class.
>Well it works the same waynope
>by boosting dopaminereally? how? do the substances both stimulate the same dopaminergic receptor subtypes? do they both cause selective or nonselective dopamine reuptake inhibition? how does this "boosting" work? why do they target dopamine exclusively? how do these different molecules bind equally strong to various receptor sites?
methylphenidate targets dopamine and norepinephrine, and some serotonin subtypes to a lesser extent, mainly by reuptake inhibition.
dexamphetamine mainly targets the dopamine, norepinephrine, serotonin, through reuptake inhibition as well as synaptic release.
anyway, off-topic for \POL\
