Pyrovalerone is a psychostimulant cathinone derivative that inhibits the reuptake of dopamine and norepinephrine by blocking their respective monoamine transporters, producing CNS stimulation, increased alertness, and euphoria similar to cocaine. It was briefly investigated as a treatment for fatigue and lethargy but is now a controlled substance due to its significant abuse potential.
