Difference between Amphetamine and Dopamine agonist

Amphetamine vs. Dopamine agonist

Amphetamine (contracted from) is a potent central nervous system (CNS) stimulant that is used in the treatment of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), narcolepsy, and obesity. A dopamine receptor agonist is a compound that activates dopamine receptors.
