A member asked:

I abused adderall (dextroamphetamine and racemic amphetamine) to the point where i lost all feelings of pleasure, now a year clean, are there any meds that will help my dopamine flow?

Dr. Foster Carr answered

Yes but why?: There are drugs that inhbit the uptake of dopamine and therefore increase dopamine leveils . There are also dopamine mimetics that are used in parkinsons patients. The question is what are you trying to accomplish? Are you depressed ?
