The drug class of monoamine agonists includes agents called antidepressants and stimulants. Monoamine agonists are the most widely used class of psychotropic drugs. There are three major monoamines, and thus three main types of monoamine agonists. We consider each in turn: the serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SRIs), norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (NRIs), and dopaminergic agents. We also discuss the dopamine agonists—bupropion (Wellbutrin) and amphetamines (“stimulants”), as well as other new monoamine agonists. The clinical pharmacology of specific agents within each class, including their efficacy and side effects, is explored. Specific phenomena surveyed include SRI tolerance, sexual dysfunction, drug interactions, serotonin withdrawal syndrome, and suicide and akathisia.
