D-Deprenyl, also known as or dextro-N-propargyl-N-methylamphetamine, is an MAO-B inhibitor that metabolizes into D-amphetamine and D-methamphetamine and is therefore also a norepinephrine-dopamine releasing agent.[1][2][3][4][5] It is the opposite enantiomer of L-deprenyl (selegiline).

L-Deprenyl, also an MAO-B inhibitor, metabolizes to L-amphetamine and L-methamphetamine, which are both norepinephrine releasing agents. In contrast, D-deprenyl additionally has dopaminergic effects and has been found to be reinforcing in scientific research, whereas L-deprenyl is not known to have any appreciable psychological reinforcement.[6][7]
