Product Information

• Name: Amitriptyline N-oxide
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Amitriptyline N-oxide is an amine that is metabolized in the liver by cytochrome P450 and N-oxidases. It has been shown to inhibit the uptake of a number of drugs, including imatinib, and inhibit their oxidation by cytochrome p450. Amitriptyline N-oxide has also been shown to affect blood pressure in humans. The compound class of amitriptyline N-oxide includes a number of other drugs, such as octopamine, tyramine, dopamine, ephedrine and amphetamine. Amitriptyline N-oxide is oxidized to amitriptyline by human liver microsomes and can be used as a biochemical probe for compounds with similar structures. The profile of amitriptyline N-oxide can be used to identify other compounds with similar structures.
