2-Fluoroamphetamine is a stimulant
drug from the amphetamine
family which has rarely been sold as a designer drug
. In addition, both 2-fluorophenethylamine and amphetamine
have been found to act as potent agonists at the trace amine-associated receptor
TAAR1
, making it likely that 2-fluoroamphetamine also has significant activity at this receptor.
