Reboxetine is a noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor (NRI). It is used as a non-stimulant alternative in the treatment of ADHD and as an augmentation agent in the treatment of depression. It has also shown promise in the treatment of panic disorder.
Atomoxetine (a chemical cousin of reboxetine) is pretty much the same, though also has a slight affinity for the serotonin transporter (SERT).
Personal experience
After having experimented with pure serotonin enhancement (escitalopram) and pure dopamine enhancement (modafinil), I wanted to find out what pure noradrenaline enhancement felt like. I started out with only 2mg of reboxetine.
