stimulant (as noun)
Usage Note
Stimolante is invariable for gender (un dibattito stimolante, una sfida stimolante). As a noun it becomes masculine: uno stimolante (a stimulant drug or substance). The sense 'intellectually stimulating' is far more common in everyday Italian than the pharmacological one.
