Biochem/physiol Actions
Cathinone is the major central nervous system stimulant. Like amphetamine, it is a potent releaser of norepinephrine and dopamine from their intracellular stores. Cathinone derivates are known to have prolonged effects on nervous and blood vascular systems. The mode of action of its derivative is by inhibiting the reuptake of neurotransmitters and stimulating cathinone-sensitive receptors.
