Stimulants are a broad category of substances that act to increase the level of activity of the central nervous system. The category includes commonly used substances such as caffeine and nicotine, over-the-counter decongestants (e.g., pseudoephedrine), illegal drugs (e.g., cocaine, methamphetamine), and prescription medications. Although the category of stimulants includes many substances, this drug summary focuses on prescription stimulants.
