2-Benzylpiperidine is a stimulant drug of the aryl piperidine family. It is similar in structure to certain other stimulants such as methylphenidate and desoxypipradrol. However, it is far less potent as a monoamine reuptake inhibitor in comparison. The drug is little used as a stimulant, with its main use being as a synthetic intermediate in the manufacture of other drugs.
