Description

Desmethyl cyclobenzaprine hydrochloride is a metabolite of cyclobenzaprine, a drug used for the treatment of muscle spasms. Desmethyl cyclobenzaprine hydrochloride has been shown to have an increased potency for the termination of nerve impulses. These results were determined by in vivo studies using an assay on rat sciatic nerve and a study on human adrenergic receptors. This metabolite also shows potentiation effects with other drugs such as clonidine and prazosin, which are used to treat hypertension and anxiety, respectively. However, clinical relevance is still unknown due to the lack of data on desmethyl cyclobenzaprine hydrochloride's uptake and enhancement in humans.
