Levels of phenylpropanolamine in the brain are about 40% of those in the heart and 20% of those in the lungs. [6] The hydroxyl group of phenylpropanolamine at the β carbon increases its hydrophilicity, reduces its permeation through the blood–brain barrier, and limits its central nervous system (CNS) effects.

Norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors, like atomoxetine, methylphenidate, and cocaine, as well as norepinephrine releasing agents, like amphetamine, ephedrine, pseudoephedrine, and phenylpropanolamine, indirectly activate β 1-adrenergic receptors (as well as other adrenergic receptors) by increasing norepinephrine and/or epinephrine levels.

Some β-hydroxyamphetamines have had their side chain extended and cyclized.Examples include certain substituted phenylmorpholines like phenmetrazine and phendimetrazine and their analogues; substituted phenylmorpholines related to bupropion like radafaxine (cyclized (2S,3S)-hydroxybupropion) and manifaxine; certain substituted aminorexes like 4-methylaminorex and 4,4'-dimethylaminorex; and ...
Pemoline has been used in the treatment of ADHD and narcolepsy. [2] [1] [5] It has also been used in the treatment of excessive daytime sleepiness. [8]The medication was typically used at doses of 18.75 to 112.5 mg once per day in the treatment of ADHD, with the effective dose for most people being in the range of 56.25 to 75 mg. [1] [2] The onset of action of pemoline is gradual and ...
Frieden, the CDC director, said he has been stunned at the level of opposition to the medication from some in the treatment community. “I was at an event about prescription overdoses and I mentioned buprenorphine and I got booed,” he said. “I hope they would kind of understand that other people are going to want to use buprenorphine. …

L-Norpseudoephedrine, or (−)-norpseudoephedrine, is a psychostimulant drug of the amphetamine family. It is one of the four optical isomers of phenylpropanolamine, the other three being cathine ((+)-norpseudoephedrine), (−)-norephedrine, and (+)-norephedrine; as well as one of the two enantiomers of norpseudoephedrine (the other being cathine).
