A norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (NRI, NERI) or noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor or adrenergic reuptake inhibitor (ARI), is a type of drug that acts as a reuptake inhibitor for the neurotransmitters norepinephrine (noradrenaline) and epinephrine (adrenaline) by blocking the action of the norepinephrine transporter (NET). This in turn leads to increased extracellular concentrations of norepinephrine and epinephrine and therefore can increase adrenergic neurotransmission.
NRIs are commonly used...
Wikipedia would never lie to me
Seems like NRI is a type of NET inhibitor?
From my understanding, NET refers to the channel (norepinephrine transporte), just like saying fluoxetine is a SERT inhibitor (targeting the serotonin transporter), instead of an SSRI
