Caffeine (1.5–2%) + theobromine + kolanin (a glycoside). (1) · Caffeine (highest of the ''Ilex'' genus) plus saponins that produce ritual vomiting at high doses. (1) · Caffeine (sometimes called 'mateine' historically, though chemically identical), theobromine, theophylline, plus polyphenols. (1) · Cathinone analogue; monoamine reuptake inhibitor (2) · Highest natural caffeine content of any plant (2–7% by dry weight, ~2–4× coffee). Caffeine is bound to tannins, producing a slower release than pure coffee caffeine. (1) · Monoamine releasing agent (4) · Monoamine releasing agent; active ingredient in khat (1) · Norepinephrine and dopamine releasing agent (1) · Norepinephrine/dopamine releasing agent (1) · Norepinephrine/dopamine reuptake inhibitor (1) · Primary alkaloid is arecoline, a muscarinic agonist (M1, M2, M3, M4) and partial agonist at nicotinic receptors. Produces alertness, salivation, sweating, mild euphoria. (1) · Primary alkaloid is cocaine, a tropane that blocks reuptake of dopamine and norepinephrine (and serotonin). At low oral doses from leaf chewing, the slow release favors NE-mediated alertness over DA-mediated euphoria. (1) · Primary alkaloid is theobromine (3,7-dimethylxanthine), with minor caffeine. Also contains phenethylamine, anandamide (an endogenous cannabinoid), tryptophan (serotonin precursor), and flavanols. The combined effect is mild stimulation + mood elevation. (1) · Serotonin releasing agent; monoamine reuptake inhibitor (1) · Serotonin/norepinephrine/dopamine releasing agent (3)

Ambien CR 6.25 mg women / 6.25-12.5 mg men. Intermezzo SL 1.75 mg women / 3.5 mg men · 0.25 mg · 0.4 mg PO daily (general prevention); 0.8-1 mg/d in pregnancy; 4 mg/d for women with prior NTD-affected pregnancy; 1 mg/d during methotrexate therapy · 0.4 mg PO once daily, 30 minutes after the same meal each day · 0.5 mg PO once daily · 0.5-1 mg PO/IV once or twice daily; titrate to clinical response. Approximate equipotency: bumetanide 1 mg ≈ furosemide 40 mg ≈ torsemide 20 mg · 0.5-2 mg/kg/d divided or single morning dose for acute conditions; lowest effective dose for chronic conditions, with planned taper · 0.5-3 mg PO 30-60 minutes before bedtime. Some patients respond to micro-doses (0.3 mg) without additional benefit at higher doses. For circadian phase shifting, timing relative to dim-light melatonin onset matters more than absolute dose · 0.5–1 oz (10–30 g) ground for psychoactive effect; far smaller for culinary use · 0.75 mg SC weekly'"`UNIQ--ref-00000053-QINU`"' · 1 capsule (20/10 mg dextromethorphan/quinidine) PO once daily × 7 days, then 1 capsule BID · 1 drop in affected eye(s) TID (monotherapy); BID with timolol (Cosopt) · 1 drop in the affected eye(s) once daily in the evening · 1 drop in the affected eye(s) once daily in the evening (Lumigan); Latisse applied to upper lash line at bedtime · 1 g PO QID on an empty stomach (1 hour before meals and at bedtime); 1 g BID for maintenance · 1 mg at bedtime (PTSD nightmares); 1 mg BID–TID (HTN) · 1 mg PO at bedtime to limit first-dose syncope; titrate weekly to 5-10 mg · 1 mg PO once daily

Mexican tradition: drunk with chili, cornmeal, achiote. European tradition: with sugar and milk (1) · Fresh nuts chewed; also dried and powdered (1) · Leaves chewed with a pinch of slaked lime (the lime converts cocaine HCl to freebase for buccal absorption); also drunk as tea (''mate de coca'') (1) · Roasted seeds ground to powder, mixed with water; commercial syrups and energy drinks (1) · Toasted leaves and twigs decocted to a near-black concentrate (1)
