sympathomimetic amines การใช้

• Mazindol is a sympathomimetic amine, which is similar to amphetamine.
• Phentermine is a sympathomimetic amine which acts as an appetite suppressant and stimulant.
• Thus, all sympathomimetic amines fall into the larger group of stimulants ( see psychoactive drug chart ).
• Dichloroisoproterenol ( DCI ) was discovered to be a ?-antagonist that blocked the effects of sympathomimetic amines on bronchodilation, uterine relaxation and heart stimulation.
• Direct acting sympathomimetic amines, such as phenylephrine stimulate alpha adrenergic receptors, while mixed-acting agents, such as pseudoephedrine can stimulate both alpha and beta adrenergic receptors directly and indirectly by releasing norepinephrine from sympathetic nerve terminals.
