Lisdexamfetamine: Difference between revisions
>Sylocin m Added more pharmacological information. Lisdexamfetamine should have "L" capitalized and D-Amphetamine should be capitalized as well. The (R,S) format is always capitalized, so should (D,L). |

As a [[prodrug]], lisdexamfetamine is inactive in the form administered and | As a [[prodrug]], lisdexamfetamine is inactive in the form administered. Once ingested, it is enzymatically cleaved into two parts: L-lysine, a naturally occurring essential amino acid, and <small>d</small>-amphetamine, a central nervous system stimulant. Thus lisdexamfetamine functions as an extended release version of dexamphetamine. Because <small>d</small>-amphetamine needs to be liberated from lysine via contact with red blood cells, effects are independent of route of administration. Conversion of lisdexamfetamine into active <small>d</small>-amphetamine is enzymatically [[Rate-Limiting Step|rate-limited]], slowing down the time to achieve peak concentrations and decreasing its magnitude and dampening consequent striatal dopamine release, which is thought to be responsible for its euphoric and [[compulsive redosing]] effects. | ||

Amphetamine is a [[Agonist|full agonist]] of the trace amine-associated receptor 1 (TAAR1), which is a key regulator of common and trace brain monoamines such as [[dopamine]], [[serotonin]] and [[noradrenaline]].<ref>{{cite journal | vauthors=((Miller, G.
