CAS 56995-20-1: Flupirtine
Description:Flupirtine is a non-opioid analgesic and muscle relaxant that is primarily used for the treatment of pain and discomfort. It is classified as a selective neuronal potassium channel opener, which contributes to its analgesic properties by stabilizing neuronal excitability and reducing the release of excitatory neurotransmitters. The chemical structure of flupirtine includes a phenylpyridine moiety, which is essential for its pharmacological activity. It exhibits a favorable pharmacokinetic profile, with good oral bioavailability and a relatively long half-life, allowing for less frequent dosing. Flupirtine is known for its minimal side effects compared to traditional analgesics, making it a valuable option for patients with chronic pain conditions. However, it is important to note that flupirtine has been associated with liver toxicity, leading to restrictions in its use in some countries. Overall, flupirtine represents a unique approach to pain management, particularly in cases where conventional analgesics may not be suitable.
