Benzphetamine is used as a short term adjunct in management of exogenous obesity. It is closely related to amphetamine. Pharmacology Benzphetamine is a sympathomimetic amine, and is classified as an anorectic. The main function of this drug is to reduce hunger, which in turn reduces caloric intake. Although the mechanism of action of the sympathomimetic appetite suppressants in the treatment of obesity is not fully known, these medications have pharmacological effects similar to those of amphetamines. Amphetamine and related sympathomimetic medications such as benzphetamine are thought to stimulate the release of norepinephrine and/or dopamine from storage sites in nerve terminals in the lateral hypothalamic feeding center, thereby producing a decrease in appetite. This release is mediated by the binding of benzphetamine to centrally located adrenergic receptors. Tachyphylaxis and tolerance have been demonstrated with all drugs of this class in which these phenomena have been looked for. Contraindications 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. Benzphetamine should not be given to patients who are in an agitated state or who have a history of drug abuse. Controlled substance classification Benzphetamine is unique in its classification as a Schedule III drug in the United States. Most members of the amphetamine family are classified in the more highly-regulated Schedule II. It's notable that benzphetamine is metabolized by the human body into amphetamine and methamphetamine metabolites, making it one of the very few drugs to undergo in vivo conversion to a substance of higher addiction and abuse potential. Benzphetamine itself does not have a such a high recreational abuse potential Schedule III because any administration route ingested, insufflated, injected, etc. would still have a sustained release due to the amount of time it would take the liver to metabolize it into amphetamine and methamphetamine. v d e Stimulants Alkylamines Cyclopentamine Geranamine Isometheptene Octodrine Propylhexedrine Tuamine Alphapyrrolidinylalkiophenones α-PPP MDPPP MDPV MPBP MPHP MPPP MOPPP Pyrovalerone Cholinergics ABT-089 ABT-418 Anabasine Arecoline Cotinine Cytisine Dianicline Epibatidine Epiboxidine GTS-21 Ispronicline Nicotine Rivanicline Tebanicline Varenicline Convulsants Bicuculline DMCM Gabazine Pentetrazol Picrotoxin Strychnine Thujone Eugeroics Adrafinil Armodafinil Carphedon Modafinil Phenethylamines 4-Bromomethcathinone 4-Fluoroamphetamine 4-Fluoromethamphetamine 4-Fluoromethcathinone 4-Methylmethcathinone 4-MTA Aletamine Amfepentorex Amphechloral Amphetamine Dextroamphetamine, Adderall Amphetaminil Benzphetamine Bupropion Cathinone Chlorphentermine Clenbuterol Clobenzorex Clortermine Diethylpropion Dimethoxyamphetamine Dimethylamphetamine Dimethylcathinone Ephedrine Epinephrine Ethcathinone Ethylamphetamine Fenethylline Fenfluramine Fenproporex Fludorex Furfenorex Levomethamphetamine Lisdexamfetamine MDMA Mefenorex Methamphetamine Methcathinone Methoxyphedrine Methylone Octopamine Ortetamine Parahydroxyamphetamine PCA PIA PMA PMEA PMMA PPAP Phendimetrazine Phenmetrazine Phentermine Phenylephrine Phenylpropanolamine Propylamphetamine Pseudoephedrine Selegiline Synephrine Tiflorex Xylopropamine Phenylaminooxazoles 4-Methyl-aminorex Aminorex Clominorex Fenozolone Fluminorex Pemoline Thozalinone Piperazines 2C-B-BZP BZP GBR-12783 GBR-12935 GBR-13069 GBR-13098 GBR-13119 MeOPP MBZP Vanoxerine Piperidines 2-Benzylpiperidine Desoxypipradrol Diphemethoxidine Ethylphenidate HDMP-28 --Methyl-1-methyl-4β-2-naphthylpiperidine-3β-carboxylate Methylphenidate Dexmethylphenidate Nocaine Phacetoperane Pipradrol Tropanes 3α-Bis-4-fluorophenylmethoxytropane 3α-4-Chlorophenylphenylmethoxytropane 3-Pseudotropyl-4-fluorobenzoate Altropane IACFT Brasofensine CFT WIN 35,428 β-CIT RTI-55 Cocaethylene Cocaine β-CPPIT Dichloropane RTI-111 Difluoropine FE-β-CPPIT FP-β-CPPIT PIT PTT RTI-31 RTI-32 RTI-51 RTI-112 RTI-113 RTI-121 IPCIT RTI-126 RTI-150 RTI-171 RTI-177 RTI-336 Tesofensine Troparil β-CPT, WIN 35,065-2 WF-23 WF-33 WF-60 Xanthines Aminophylline Caffeine Dimethazan Paraxanthine Theobromine Theophylline Others Amineptine Bemegride Benzydamine BPAP Bromantane BTQ Clofenciclan Cypenamine Cyprodenate Diclofensine Dimethocaine Diphenyl prolinol Ethamivan Fencamfamine Feprosidnine Gilutensin GYKI-52895 Hexacyclonate Indanorex Indatraline LR-5182 Mazindol Mesocarb Naphthylisopropylamine Nikethamide Nomifensine Phthalimidopropiophenone Prolintane Sibutramine Yohimbine Zylofuramine See also Sympathomimetic amines Retrieved from http://en..org/wiki/Benzphetamine Categories: Amphetamines | AnorecticsHidden categories: Articles lacking sources from July 2008 | All articles lacking sources Views Article Discussion this page History Personal tools Log in / create account Navigation Main page Contents Featured content Current events Random article Search Go Search Interaction Community portal Recent changes Contact Donate to Help Toolbox What links here Related changes Upload file Special pages Printable version Permanent link Cite this page Languages Español Galego Polski This page was last modified on 18 July 2008, at 00:11
