Abstract
(+)-Amphetamine (AM) and its fluorinated analogue (+)-2-amino-3-fluoro-1-phenylpropane (fluoroamphetamine, FAM) were compared with regard to their effects on locomotor and exploratory activity in mice. Both drugs caused a reduction in spontaneous exploration, but this effect was more marked with FAM than with AM at 1 h after injection. Both compounds increased locomotor activity 10 min after injection, but FAM had sedative effects after 1 h, while AM continued to be stimulatory.
