Methamphetamine

Methamphetamine acts as a dopaminergic and adrenergic reuptake inhibitor and as a sympathomimetic. Since it stimulates the mesolimbic reward pathway, causing euphoria and excitement, it is thus prone to abuse and addiction. Methamphetamine rapidly enters the brain and triggers a cascading release of dopamine, norepinephrine and to a lesser extent, serotonin.

Users may become obsessed or perform repetitive tasks such as cleaning, hand-washing, or assembling and disassembling objects. Withdrawal is characterized by hypersomnia, polyphagia, and depression-like symptoms, often accompanied by anxiety and drug-craving. Users of Methamphetamine often take one or more benzodiazepines as a means of "coming down.
