Oxypertine, sold under the brand name Oxypertine among others, is an antipsychotic medication of the tryptamine and phenylpiperazine groups which was previously used in the treatment of schizophrenia but is no longer marketed. [2] It was also evaluated for the treatment of anxiety. [3]

Contents

Pharmacology

Pharmacodynamics

The drug shows high affinity for the serotonin 5-HT2 and dopamine D2 receptors (Ki = 8.6 nM and 30 nM, respectively). [4] It antagonizes the behavioral effects of tryptamine, a serotonin receptor agonist, and apomorphine, a dopamine receptor agonist, in animals. [4] [5] Like reserpine and tetrabenazine, oxypertine depletes catecholamines, though not serotonin, possibly contributing to its antipsychotic effectiveness. [6]

Chemistry

Chemically, it is a substituted tryptamine and phenylpiperazine derivative. [7] Its chemical structure is similar to other "pertines" including alpertine, milipertine, and solypertine. [8] [9]

History

Oxypertine was first described in the scientific literature by 1962. [10]

Tiospirone (BMY-13,859), also sometimes called tiaspirone or tiosperone, is an atypical antipsychotic of the azapirone class. It was investigated as a treatment for schizophrenia in the late 1980s and was found to have an effectiveness equivalent to those of typical antipsychotics in clinical trials but without causing extrapyramidal side effects. However, development was halted and it was not marketed. Perospirone, another azapirone derivative with antipsychotic properties, was synthesized and assayed several years after tiospirone. It was found to be both more potent and more selective in comparison and was commercialized instead.

Tepirindole (INNTooltip International Nonproprietary Name; developmental code names RU-27592, HR-592) is a tryptamine-related atypical antipsychotic and major tranquilizer which was never marketed. It is similar in structure to tryptamines but is not technically a tryptamine itself and is instead a piperidinyl indole. The drug is said to act on dopamine D2, serotonin 5-HT2, and α1-adrenergic receptors. It is a potent dopamine receptor antagonist but reportedly has little propensity to cause catalepsy and has been said to potentially be useful in treating the negative symptoms of schizophrenia. The drug may also act as a potent serotonin receptor agonist. Tepirindole was first described in the literature by 1979.
