Sydnophen is a pharmaceutical drug that belongs to the class of stimulants. It is primarily used in the treatment of neurological disorders and conditions related to mental health.
Pharmacology[edit | edit source]
Sydnophen works by increasing the levels of certain chemicals in the brain that help with neurotransmission. It is believed to enhance the effects of norepinephrine and dopamine, two neurotransmitters that play key roles in attention and alertness.

Side Effects[edit | edit source]
Like all medications, Sydnophen can cause side effects. Common side effects include insomnia, nervousness, and increased heart rate. Less common but more serious side effects can include hypertension, psychosis, and addiction.
