IntroductionIntroduction
All of these are psychomotor stimulants– Operate on the monoamines
E NE DA 5Ht
Which monoamine and how depends on the drug

HistoryHistory
Ephidrine has been around for a long time– Synthetic too!
Pseudoephidrine, popular among athletesChat (or whatever spelling you prefer) has

Administration and AbsorptionAdministration and Absorption
Oral, more constantInjection or snort, get a big rushCocaine
HCl– Testing for purity showed you could smoke it– Crack!
Peak concentration from 30 min to 3 hr after taking amphetamine
![Page 11: Blow, E, Meth and Ice: The Psychomotor Stimulants](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062502/5681675f550346895ddc3123/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Administration and AbsorptionAdministration and Absorption
Probably more rapid from smokingCrosses the barriersExcreted in urineMetabolized by the liverCoke has a half life of about 40 min

Neruphysiology and EffectsNeruphysiology and Effects
Transmitter Leakage– CA + 5Ht
Increase in amount released– Ecstasy does this with 5Ht
Block reuptake– Coke does this only
In PNS E is released

Neurophysiology and EffectsNeurophysiology and Effects
Increases the release of DA in accumens– Reward system again
Cocaine can act as a local as it blocks Na ion channels
Effects– Heart rate increases– Dilation of blood vessels
![Page 16: Blow, E, Meth and Ice: The Psychomotor Stimulants](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062502/5681675f550346895ddc3123/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Neurophysiology and EffectsNeurophysiology and Effects
Effectss (continued)
– Headaches– Dry mouth– Weight loss– Disrupts sleep
– REM rebound later

Behavioural EffectsBehavioural Effects
Cocaine and speed are indistinguishableFeels goodMore energyClear mindCome down later“Rush”
– Speed lasts longer than coke

Behavioural EffectsBehavioural EffectsPunding
– Sstereotyped behviourAmphetamine psychosis
– Happily, it clears up– DA?– Violence
Sensation gets better– Flicker fusion

Behavioural EffectsBehavioural Effects
Eliminates fatigue effects on Reaction Time– Flight simulator!
Overlearned taks
Athletci Performance too– Tested for in competition– Sudafed and NHL players
![Page 20: Blow, E, Meth and Ice: The Psychomotor Stimulants](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062502/5681675f550346895ddc3123/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Behavioural EffectsBehavioural Effects
Nonhumans– Increase in SMA– Stereotypical behaviour (like punding maybe)– automutilation– Increases FI, decreases FR responding
Same sort of dynamic effect happens with negatively reinforced behaviour.
![Page 21: Blow, E, Meth and Ice: The Psychomotor Stimulants](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062502/5681675f550346895ddc3123/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Behvioural EffectsBehvioural Effects
Nonhumans (continued)
– Dissociative effects too
– Discriminable from saline

ToleranceToleranceAcute tolerance develops quickly to cocaineAppetite suppressing effects disappear
– So do lethal effectsPsychosis, stereotypical behaviour show
negative tolerance– Sensitivity?
Withdrawal not that bad– Letdown, amphetamine deppression

AdministrationAdministrationCocaine
– Snorted, smoked injectedspeed
– Run and crash– Or small does– injected
Ecstasy– pills

Administration: Non humansAdministration: Non humans
If constantly available monkeys will stop for periods
If limited they’ll titrate
Rats will self-administer– Important for understanding reward model
