A adrenergic uptake inhibitor is a drug which blocks the reuptake of adrenergic neurotransmitters.

Several tricyclic antidepressants and tetracyclic antidepressants employ this mechanism.

Examples include:^[1]

• 3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine
• amitriptyline
• amoxapine
• amphetamine
• tomoxetine
• benzphetamine
• desipramine
• dextroamphetamine
• dothiepin
• doxepin
• duloxetine
• imipramine
• iprindole
• maprotiline
• mazindol
• methamphetamine
• methylphenidate
• milnacipran
• n-methyl-3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine
• nortriptyline
• opipramol
• protriptyline
• reboxetine
• reserpine
• tetrabenazine
• trimipramine
• tyramine
• viloxazine
