Yes, drugs that generally increase acetycholine function tend to decrease noradrenic function.
They call it the cholinergic-adrenergic axis. I found a good explaination on the cover of www.nootropics.com as to how oftentimes so-called "smart drugs" tend to induce depression. As well there is the term "dumb drug euphoria", whereby certain drugs like anticholinergics (cogentin etc) that produce cognative dysfunction, can actually produce a "mindless euphoria".
