3-Fluoroamphetamine (3-FA; PAL-353) is a stimulant drug from the amphetamine family which acts as a monoamine releaser with similar potency to methamphetamine but more selectivity for dopamine and noradrenaline release over serotonin.[1] It is self-administered by mice to a similar extent to related drugs such as 4-fluoroamphetamine and 3-methylamphetamine.[2]

EC50 NE release (nM) 16.1 ± 1.7 EC50 DA release (nM) 24.2 ± 1.1 EC50 5HT release (nM) 1,937 ± 202
