Here, clonidine (a2 agonist -- ie anti-adrenergic) is used in conjunction with methylphenidate in ADHD in order to reduce the side effects of methylphenidate. That's probably similar to what I hope to do with piribedil.
Beta-blockers, though, there are some concerns that using those in conjunction with stimulants could cause dangerous hypertension related to the unblocked alpha activity.
Do I think constant norepinephrine/epinephrine stimulation has potentially some serious drawbacks? Yes, definitely, especially for Me.
