I'm not sure that this verbiage is helpful.
For whatever reasons, some very educated people with depression report that buprenorphine is the only drug that relieves it. Others report tramadol as being effective, although its properties of NE/5-HT reuptake inhibition cannot be overlooked. However, many of these people had tried reuptake inhibitors previously without success.
Regarding nociception, memantine might extend the analgesic effects of opioids and mitigate the development of tolerance. This has been the conclusion of numerous studies. There is far less evidence of memantine extending the therapeutic effects of amphetamines. I never tried it.
