History[edit | edit source]

Effects[edit | edit source]
Brephedrone is a stimulant that increases levels of norepinephrine, dopamine, and serotonin in the brain. This can result in feelings of euphoria, increased energy, and heightened alertness. However, it can also cause negative side effects such as anxiety, paranoia, and insomnia.
