Product Information

• Name: Zacopride hydrochloride

• Description: Zacopride hydrochloride is a peptide hormone that belongs to the group of 5-HT2 receptor agonists. It has been used in the treatment of bowel disease, including irritable bowel syndrome, and may be effective in treating other gastrointestinal disorders such as pancreatitis. Zacopride hydrochloride binds to the 5-HT2 receptors in the gut and initiates a response that causes muscle contractions and relaxation. This drug also has cardiac effects, which have been shown by studies on guinea pigs and rats. Zacopride hydrochloride is metabolized by DPP-IV enzyme inhibitors, which are drugs that prevent degradation of peptides with dipeptidyl peptidase IV activity.
