:Ramelteon
Description:
Ramelteon is a synthetic compound primarily used as a sleep aid, classified as a melatonin receptor agonist. It specifically targets the MT1 and MT2 melatonin receptors in the brain, which play a crucial role in regulating circadian rhythms and sleep-wake cycles. This mechanism of action distinguishes Ramelteon from traditional sedative-hypnotics, as it does not exhibit the same potential for dependence or withdrawal symptoms. Ramelteon is typically administered orally and is known for its relatively rapid onset of action, making it effective for the treatment of insomnia, particularly in individuals who have difficulty falling asleep. The substance is characterized by its relatively short half-life, which minimizes residual effects the following day. Additionally, Ramelteon has a favorable safety profile, with common side effects including dizziness and fatigue, but it is generally well-tolerated. Due to its unique pharmacological properties, Ramelteon represents a valuable option in the management of sleep disorders, particularly for those seeking a non-benzodiazepine alternative.

CAS:Controlled Product<p>Ramelteon is a synthetic drug, which is a melatonin receptor agonist with high affinity for MT1 and MT2 receptors. These receptors are primarily located in the suprachiasmatic nucleus of the brain, an area responsible for regulating circadian rhythms. By binding to these receptors, Ramelteon mimics the effects of the endogenous hormone melatonin, promoting the onset of sleep.</p>Formula:C16H21NO2Molecular weight:259.34 g/mol(R)-N-(2-(2,8-Dihydro-1H-indeno[5,4-b]furan-8-yl)ethyl)propionamide
