Nomifensine

Nomifensine is a dopamine reuptake inhibitor that increases the amount of synaptic dopamine available to receptors by blocking dopamine's re-uptake transporter. This is a mechanism of action shared by drugs like cocaine and bupropion (Wellbutrin/Zyban). more...

Nomifensine is used frequently in studies involving dopamine release in response to addiction. This is because typically different areas of the brain have different amounts of dopamine transporter, but when Nomifensine is administered, a sufficient basal dopamine level is reached to allow comparison of dopamine release from drugs of abuse in different areas of the brain without the results being skewed by re-uptake speed variation.
