<p><b>New page</b></p><div>[[File:4-Ethylamphetamine.svg|thumb|{{PAGENAME}}]]<br>'''4-Ethylamphetamine''' ('''4-EA''') is a [[psychoactive drug]] and [[research chemical]] of the [[phenethylamine]] and [[amphetamine]] chemical classes. It acts as a [[psychostimulant]] and has been reported to produce effects similar to those of [[amphetamine]], though with a significantly longer duration of action. <br />
<br />
==Chemistry==<br />
<br />
4-Ethylamphetamine is a [[substituted amphetamine]]. The amphetamine skeleton is substituted at the 4-position with an [[ethyl group]]. This ethyl group is larger than the hydrogen atom it replaces, which results in a significant change in the pharmacological properties of the molecule.<br />
<br />
==Pharmacology==<br />
<br />
The exact mechanism of action of 4-ethylamphetamine is not well understood. However, it is believed to increase the levels of certain [[neurotransmitters]] in the brain, such as [[dopamine]], [[norepinephrine]], and [[serotonin]]. This is achieved by inhibiting their reuptake and stimulating their release. This leads to increased neurotransmitter concentrations in the [[synaptic cleft]], which can result in increased stimulation of post-synaptic receptors.<br />
<br />
==Effects==<br />
<br />
The effects of 4-ethylamphetamine are similar to those of other amphetamines. These can include [[euphoria]], increased energy, enhanced focus, and increased sociability. However, these effects are often accompanied by side effects such as [[insomnia]], [[anxiety]], and potential for [[addiction]].<br />
<br />
==Legal Status==<br />
<br />
The legal status of 4-ethylamphetamine varies by country. In some countries, it is a controlled substance, while in others it is legal to possess for personal use.<br />
