Pharmacology
Amphetamine is a non-catecholamine sympathomimetic amine CNS stimulant that blocks reuptake of norepinephrine and dopamine into the presynaptic neuron and increases release of these monoamines into the extraneuronal space; the mode of therapeutic action in ADHD is not known.
Methylphenidate is a CNS stimulant that blocks the reuptake of norepinephrine and dopamine into the presynaptic neuron and increases the release of these monoamines into the extraneuronal space; the d-isomer is more pharmacologically active than the l-isomer.
