Pyrovalerone (Centroton, Thymergix) is a stimulant drug developed in the late 1960s and used in France and some other European countries. It is sometimes prescribed for treating chronic fatigue and lethargy[1] or as an appetite suppresant, though it is used infrequently due to problems with abuse and dependence. [2] Side effects of pyrovalerone include loss of appetite, anxiety, insomnia, and tremor. Withdrawal syndrome following abuse causes depression. [3] Pyrovalerone is a Schedule 5 drug in the USA. It is closely related to some other stimulant drugs such as prolintane and MDPV.


CAS# 1147-62-2 (pyrovalerone hydrochloride); 3563-49-3 (pyrovalerone freebase)
