(-)-Methyl-1-methyl-4β-(2-naphthyl)piperidine-3β-carboxylate is a piperidine based stimulant drug which is synthesised from arecoline. It is similar to nocaine in chemical structure, and has and a half times more activity than cocaine as a dopamine reuptake inhibitor. However it is also a potent serotonin reuptake inhibitor, with similar affinity to fluoxetine.[1] It is a structural isomer of another potent dopamine reuptake inhibitor, HDMP-28.
