Cyheptamide was a investigational new drug that was developed by Ayerst Research Laboratories in the 1960s and was evaluated as an anticonvulsant. ^[1]

Cyheptamide undergoes significant metabolic transformation in both animals and humans, primarily through hydroxylation pathways. ^[2]

Cyheptamide exhibits moderate acute toxicity in animal models, with species-specific variations in lethal dose values. ^[3]

Another agent that is creditworthy of consideration is called SGB-017 [183904-41-8]. ^[4]

SGB-017 (ADCI) [183904-41-8]
