Ampakines are a class of drugs/molecules, rather than one substance.

The suffix -kine indicates movement (activation, in this context), and the target of that activation is the glutamatergic AMPA (alpha-amino-3-hydroxyl-5-methyl-4-isoxazole-propionate) receptor.

There have probably been many posts on these boards about the various -racetams, particularly piracetam and aniracetam. I'm sure a quick search will pull those up. There are actually well over a dozen -racetams. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Racetam
