Cocaine probably, I don’t know about cathinones, but dopamine release agents do the opposite because they displace dopamine from synaptic vesicles into the cytoplasm, which is why too much meth actually kills dopamine neurons. A DRI like cocaine or methylphenidate have been shown to prevent this kind of neurotoxicity.
