Article Title: Discriminative stimulus, rewarding, and reinforcing effects of 4-Fluoroethylphenidate in rodents.
Article Snippet: Synthetic psychostimulants are a diverse class of compounds that exert behavioral effects primarily by increasing the extracellular concentrations of dopamine and other monoamines in the brain(Baumann et al. 2018).. Among these, substances structurally related to amphetamine and cocaine have garnered particular attention because of their strong reinforcing effects and high potential for abuse(Marusich et al. 2014; Nagy et al. 2020).. The emergence of novel psychoactive substances (NPS), often designed to circumvent legal control while mimicking the effects of established stimulants, continues to pose significant public health and regulatory challenges (Addiction 2020; Schifano et al. 2016; Zawilska 2017).
