It belongs to a class of drugs known as sympathomimetic amines.

This medication is an appetite suppressant and belongs to a class of drugs called sympathomimetic amines.

Thus, all sympathomimetic amines fall into the larger group of stimulants (see psychoactive drug chart).

Ephedrine, a sympathomimetic amine with (among others) stimulant and decongestant effect.

Like other sympathomimetic amines, amphetamine can induce transient mydriasis.

Pseudoephedrine is a sympathomimetic amine.

Sympathomimetic amines, such as phenylephrine and pseudoephedrine, stimulate both alpha and beta adrenergic receptors.

It is a sympathomimetic amine of the 3-hydroxy-phenylethanolamine series used in treating orthostatic hypotension of neurological, cardiovascular, endocrine or metabolic origin.

Repeated doses of ephedrine may display tachyphylaxis, since it is an indirectly acting sympathomimetic amine, which will deplete noradrenaline from the nerve terminal.

Benzphetamine is contraindicated in patients with advanced arteriosclerosis, symptomatic cardiovascular disease, moderate to severe hypertension, hyper-thyroidism, known hypersensitivity or idiosyncrasy to sympathomimetic amines, and glaucoma.

In contrast to other, more potent stimulants like sympathomimetic amines, xanthines mainly act to oppose the actions of the sleepiness-inducing adenosine, and increase alertness in the central nervous system.
