• Description: Applications It is noteworthy that 1-(3-Chlorphenyl)piperazine (m-CPP), resulting from N-dealkylation of Trazodone, is a major circulating metabolite in humans common to several antidepressants including Trazodone, Nefazodone, and Etoperidone (1,2,3). The metabolite m-CPP is of significant interest because it has 5-HT2C agonistic and 5-HT2A antagonistic properties. It has also been suggested that m-CPP may contribute to the antidepressant efficacy of Trazodone.References (1) Bo Wen, et al.: Drug Metab. Dispos., 36, 841 (2008) (2) Maes, M., et al.: J. Clin.
