'''Isopropylphenidate''' (also known as '''IPH''', '''IPPH''', '''IPD''' and '''IPPD''') is a novel lesser-known [[psychoactive class::stimulant]] of the [[chemical class::phenidate]] chemical class. It is a structural analog of the widely-prescribed ADHD medication [[methylphenidate]]. It is a [[norepinephrine]]-[[dopamine]] [[reuptake inhibitor]] ('''NDRI'''). | '''Isopropylphenidate''' (also known as '''IPH''', '''IPP''', '''IPPH''', '''IPD''' and '''IPPD''') is a novel lesser-known [[psychoactive class::stimulant]] of the [[chemical class::phenidate]] chemical class.

Isopropylphenidate has been investigated for its potential use as a replacement for [[methylphenidate]] in the treatment of ADHD and related disorders.<ref name="IPPHadhd" /> One study found that it displayed the same basic activity as a [[norepinephrine]]-[[dopamine]] [[reuptake inhibitor]] ('''NDRI'''), possessing, along with both [[methylphenidate]] and [[ethylphenidate]], an appreciably high affinity for the dopamine transporter and effects on its cellular reuptake. It displayed comparably minor effects on [[norepinephrine]], however, which was theorized to mean it may possess a more desirable safety and toxicity profile.<ref name="IPPH" /> | Isopropylphenidate has been investigated for its potential use as a replacement for [[methylphenidate]] in the treatment of ADHD and related disorders.<ref name="IPPHadhd" /> One study found that it displayed the same basic activity as a [[norepinephrine]]-[[dopamine]] [[reuptake inhibitor]] ('''NDRI'''), possessing, along with both [[methylphenidate]] and [[ethylphenidate]], an appreciably high affinity for the dopamine transporter and effects on its cellular reuptake.
