3,3,-Diphenylcyclobutanamine is a psychostimulant drug which was originally developed as an antidepressant in the late 1970s.[1] It appears to inhibit the reuptake of serotonin, norepinephrine, and dopamine, and may also induce their release as well.[1] The N-methyl and N,N-dimethyl analogues of the compound are also known and are more potent.[1] All three agents produce locomotor stimulation in animal studies, with the N,N-dimethyl compound being the strongest.[1]
