Cirazoline
Cirazoline is a full agonist at the alpha-1A (α1A) adrenergic receptor, a partial agonist at both the alpha-1B (α1B) adrenergic receptor and alpha-1D (α1D) adrenergic receptor, and a nonselective antagonist to the alpha-2 adrenergic receptor. It is believed that this combination of properties could make cirazoline an effective vasoconstricting agent.
Cirazoline has also been shown to decrease food intake in rats, purportedly through activation of α1-adrenoceptors in the paraventricular nucleus in the hypothalamus of the brain.

Yellowbelly
by: Sarah SleanA veil of strands of hair so rare
Aveiled and stranded there nowhere
You speak to me of fate
We even set a date
Could not tell Michelle
I never said and you pretended not to hear
I chose not to reveal for fear
You speak to me of dreams
You speak to me of schemes
And I fell Michelle
We swim in sands of hope relentless grey
And what would Freud say?
He'd say "You speak to me of dreams
You speak to me of schemes"
