Dopamine Reuptake Inhibitors or Dopamine Uptake Inhibitors are compounds that inhibit the reuptake of the neurotransmitter dopamine after it is released and used at the synapse. In so doing, they tend to increase the amount of dopamine present in the brain. These include bupropion (WellbutrinŽ), cocaine, Benztropine, Nomifensine, Mazindol, amphetamines and a new class of reuptake inhibitors, the GBR Series.
