CAS 189188-57-6: Tegaserod maleate
Description:Tegaserod maleate is a selective serotonin receptor agonist primarily used in the treatment of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and chronic constipation. It acts on the 5-HT4 receptor, promoting gastrointestinal motility and enhancing peristalsis. The substance is typically presented as a maleate salt, which improves its solubility and stability. Tegaserod is characterized by its ability to alleviate symptoms such as abdominal pain and discomfort associated with IBS. Its pharmacological profile includes a relatively short half-life, necessitating multiple doses for therapeutic efficacy. The compound is generally well-tolerated, although it may be associated with side effects such as headache, diarrhea, and abdominal pain. Due to safety concerns, particularly regarding cardiovascular risks, its use has been restricted in some regions. As with any medication, it is essential to consider individual patient factors and consult healthcare professionals for appropriate use. Overall, tegaserod maleate represents a targeted approach to managing specific gastrointestinal disorders.
