What are common types of stimulants?
Common types of stimulants include caffeine, nicotine, amphetamines, and cocaine. Caffeine is the most widely consumed psychoactive substance and is found in coffee, tea, energy drinks, and some medications. Nicotine is a stimulant found in tobacco products and is highly addictive. Amphetamines, such as Adderall and Ritalin, are prescription drugs used to treat attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) but are also sometimes abused for their stimulant effects. Cocaine is a powerful and illegal stimulant that is derived from the coca plant. These stimulants increase alertness, energy, and focus, but they can also have negative effects on the body and mind when abused or used excessively.
