Uses of Amineptine
Amineptine is a substance containing an imipramine- like tricyclic ring. It has psychostimulant and antidepressant properties. It acts by releasing dopamine at synapses and inhibits dopamine uptake. Higher doses promote dopamine release too. Amineptine is liable occasionally to cause spontaneous orgasm. See Amineptine Cation
Amineptine has the small potential for abuse and dependence.
