Diethylcathinone (Tenuate, Anorex, Linea, Nobesine, Prefamone, Regenon, Tepanil), also known as diethylpropion or amfepramone, is a stimulant drug of the phenethylamine, amphetamine, and cathinone chemical classes that is used as an appetite suppressant.

Pharmacology

Diethylcathinone itself lacks any affinity for the monoamine transporters and instead functions as a prodrug to ethcathinone.[1] Ethcathinone (and therefore diethylcathinone as well) is a very weak dopaminergic and serotonergic, and is approximately 10x and 20x stronger on norepinephrine in comparison, respectively.[1] As a result, ethcathinone and diethylcathinone can essentially be considered selective norepinephrine releasing agents (NRAs).

Neurotoxicity

Diethylcathinone has been found to be neurotoxic in that it causes long-term depletions of serotonin similarly to methamphetamine and MDMA ("Ecstasy").[2][verification needed]

Legality

Diethylcathinone is classified as a Schedule IV controlled substance in the United States.

Lettris

Lettris is a curious tetris-clone game where all the bricks have the same square shape but different content. Each square carries a letter. To make squares disappear and save space for other squares you have to assemble English words (left, right, up, down) from the falling squares.

boggle

Boggle gives you 3 minutes to find as many words (3 letters or more) as you can in a grid of 16 letters. You can also try the grid of 16 letters. Letters must be adjacent and longer words score better. See if you can get into the grid Hall of Fame !
