2024年10月29日 · This activity reviews the mechanism of action, adverse event profile, toxicity, pharmacology, and monitoring parameters associated with methylphenidate therapy. Special attention is given to drug interactions and the importance of proper oversight to prevent misuse.
Methylphenidate - Wikipedia
Both amphetamine and methylphenidate are predominantly dopaminergic drugs, yet their mechanisms of action are distinct. Methylphenidate acts as a norepinephrine–dopamine reuptake inhibitor, while amphetamine is both a releasing agent and reuptake inhibitor of …
Methylphenidate: Uses, Interactions, Mechanism of Action
Mechanism of action. While its exact mechanism is unclear, methylphenidate (MPH) has been shown to act as a norepinephrine and dopamine reuptake inhibitor (NDRI), thereby increasing the presence of these neurotransmitters in the extraneuronal space and prolonging their action. 6 There is a dose-related effect of psychostimulants on receptor ...
Methylphenidate: Its Pharmacology and Uses - Mayo Clinic …
Placebo-controlled trials have documented its efficacy as an adjunctive agent in the treatment of depression and pain. This article reviews the current understanding of the mechanism of action and efficacy of methylphenidate in various clinical conditions.
The Pharmacology of Amphetamine and Methylphenidate: …
Methylphenidate actions include dopamine and norepinephrine transporter inhibition, agonist activity at the serotonin type 1A receptor, and redistribution of the VMAT-2. There is also evidence for interactions with glutamate and opioid systems.
Methylphenidate for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder …
Methylphenidate exhibits multimodal mechanism of action, working primarily as a dopamine and noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor. It also protects the dopaminergic system against the ongoing ‘wearing off’ (by securing a substantial reserve pool of the neurotransmitter, stored in the presynaptic vesicles).
PharmGKB summary: Methylphenidate Pathway, …
Methylphenidate (MPH) is a central nervous system (CNS) stimulant primarily used for the treatment of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). MPH works by preventing the reuptake of dopamine (DA) and norepinephrine (NE) through inhibition of the DA (SLC6A3) and NE transporters (SLC6A2), resulting in an increase of extracellular DA and NE.

Molecular Characterisation of the Mechanism of Action of …
We reviewed the literature for evidence that explains how the mechanisms of action (MoAs) of methylphenidate (MPH) and lisdexamfetamine dimesylate (LDX) act on these pathophysiological processes and control ADHD symptomatology.
Methylphenidate: A review of its neuropharmacological ...
The mechanism whereby methylphenidate brings about its therapeutic effect is still uncertain. It is evident that the drug inhibits dopamine reuptake from the synaptic cleft by binding to the dopamine transporter.
