Notably, it has been demonstrated that "compared to the unsubstituted ethylamphetamine, 3-fluoroethamphetamine is a weaker releaser of noradrenaline, but a stronger releaser of both dopamine and serotonin, and produced the strongest reinforcing effects in animal studies out of a range of 3-substituted amphetamine derivatives tested, despite not being the most potent dopamine releaser"<ref>Tessel RE, Woods JH.

This indicates that 3-FEA effectively increases the levels of all the three major [[monoamine neurotransmitters]] dopamine, norepinephrine, and serotonin in the brain by binding to and partially [[Reuptake inhibitor|blocking the transporter proteins]] that normally clear those molecules from the [[synaptic cleft]] after they have fulfilled their function of conducting a neural impulse. This allows these molecules to accumulate within core regions of the brain to extra-endogenous levels, resulting in a combination of [[Relaxation|relaxing], [[stimulating]], motivational and physically and cognitively [[euphoria|euphoric]] effects associated with [[entactogen]]ic [[substituted amphetamines]] like [[MDMA]] or other fluorinated amphetamines like [[4-FA]].{{citation needed}}
