About

Hi, I’m Dr Sanil Rege — a dual-qualified Consultant Psychiatrist (UK & Australia) working across complex mood, psychotic and neurodevelopmental disorders, addiction, consultation–liaison psychiatry, and neuromodulation. I’m recognised for my expertise in psychopharmacology, and I’m the founder of Psych Scene, an education platform through which I’ve trained over 10,000 health professionals. This channel translates cutting-edge neuroscience, psychiatry and psychology into clear, practical explanations — linking brain, body and behaviour so clinicians, patients, and the public can understand how the mind works in the real world.

Viewing these videos does not create a doctor–patient relationship with me. Always seek the advice of your own clinician regarding any mental or physical health concerns.

Video Description

In this video, Dr. Sanil Rege uses a drawing lightboard to visually explain the mechanisms of psychostimulants like dexamphetamine, methylphenidate, bupropion, modafinil, and armodafinil. Discover how these medications work, their impact on dopamine and noradrenaline transporters, and their critical role in treating ADHD by optimizing prefrontal cortex function. Dr. Rege also explores the nuanced differences between these stimulants, including their side effects and the importance of dose adjustments for achieving the best therapeutic outcomes. Whether you're a healthcare professional or simply curious about how stimulants work, this video provides an in-depth understanding of their mechanisms and clinical applications. 🔔 Subscribe to 'Psychiatry Simplified' for more insightful videos on psychiatry, neuroscience, and mental health.
