How it works

Bromantane is a synthetic actoprotector that enhances physical and mental performance by increasing dopamine synthesis. It is primarily studied for treating neurasthenia and fatigue without the depletion typical of stimulants.

It upregulates the expression of tyrosine hydroxylase and aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase, increasing the rate of dopamine production.
