Ifenprodil, sold under the brand names Cerocral, Dilvax, and Vadilex, is a cerebral vasodilator that has been marketed in some countries, including in Japan, Hong Kong, and France. [1] [2] [3] [4] It is currently under development for treatment of a variety of additional indications. [5]

Contents

Ifenprodil has multiple known pharmacological actions. [5] It is an inhibitor of the NMDA receptor, [6] specifically of NMDA receptors containing GluN1 and GluN2B subunits, the "ifenprodil binding site". [7] Additionally, ifenprodil inhibits GIRK channels [8] and interacts with α1-adrenergic, [5] serotonin, [9] and sigma receptors. [10] [11] [12] [5]

Chemically, ifenprodil is a substituted phenethylamine and β-hydroxyamphetamine derivative. [2] [3] It is used pharmaceutically as the tartrate salt. [1] [2] [3]

Research

Ifenprodil has been studied as a possible medication to prevent tinnitus after acoustic trauma. [13]

It is currently in phase II trials for cough and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, among other investigational uses. [5]
