Ocinaplon
Ocinaplon is an anxiolytic drug in the pyrazolopyrimidine family of drugs. Other pyrazolopyrimidine drugs include zaleplon and indiplon. Additional recommended knowledgeOcinaplon has a similar pharmacological profile to the benzodiazepine family of drugs, but with mainly anxiolytic properties and relatively little sedative or amnestic effect.[1] Mechanism of actionThe mechanism of action by which ocinaplon produces its anxiolytic effects is by modulating GABAA receptors,[2] although ocinaplon is more subtype-selective than most benzodiazepines.[3] AvailabilityDevelopment of ocinaplon is discontinued ue to liver complications that occurred in one of the Phase III subjects. [4] However new compounds are under preclinical pipeline. [5] References
