Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Cocaine blocks the reuptake of both norepinephrine and dopamine, leading to an increase in these neurotransmitters in the synaptic cleft and prolonging their effects in the brain. Beta blockers, such as propranolol, work by blocking the effects of norepinephrine on beta receptors, and do not affect dopamine reuptake. L-Dopa is a medication used to increase dopamine levels in the brain in patients with Parkinson's disease, but it does not affect norepinephrine reuptake. Prozac is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI), meaning it blocks the reuptake of serotonin specifically and has little effect on norepinephrine or dopamine.
