what's the difference between norepinephrine and epinephrine?? thanks!
Both are considered hormones and neurotransmitters (catecholamines). While they both play similar roles, epinephrine (also called adrenaline) which is made from norepinephrine by methylation has the greater role in the body as opposed to the brain. Norepinephrine (which is made when Dopamine under goes β- oxidation) helps regulate attention and impulsivity. Many ADD drugs focus on effecting Norepinephrine.
