text: These effects appear to be related to the stimulated release of neurotransmitters including dopamine, serotonin, and/or noradrenaline , with noradrenaline acting via alpha-1 receptors in arterial vasculature to stimulate vasoconstriction and via beta-1 receptors to increase cardiac contractility and heart rate , leading to hypertension and tachycardia, and promoting cardiac ischaemia.
