CAS 162359-56-0: Fingolimod hydrochloride
Description:Fingolimod hydrochloride is a synthetic compound primarily used as an immunomodulatory drug for the treatment of multiple sclerosis. It functions as a sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor modulator, which helps to retain lymphocytes in lymph nodes, thereby reducing their availability to migrate to the central nervous system and cause inflammation. The substance is typically presented as a white to off-white crystalline powder, with a molecular formula that reflects its complex structure. Fingolimod hydrochloride is soluble in water and exhibits a moderate log P value, indicating its lipophilicity. The compound is administered orally, and its pharmacokinetics involve extensive first-pass metabolism, leading to the formation of an active metabolite. Side effects may include bradycardia, elevated liver enzymes, and increased risk of infections, necessitating monitoring during treatment. Overall, Fingolimod hydrochloride represents a significant advancement in the management of relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis, offering a novel mechanism of action compared to traditional therapies.
