56433-44-4CNCC(O)CC12CCC(c3ccccc31)c1ccccc12FDXQKWSTUZCCTM-UHFFFAOYSA-NOxaprotiline is a norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor of the tetracyclic antidepressant family that is related to maprotiline. This drug was never marketed. Oxaprotiline is a racemic mixture of the isomers levoprotiline and dextroprotiline. Levoprotiline is the R or levo isomer of oxaprotiline (CGP-12,103-A). Dextroprotiline is the S or dextro isomer of oxaprotiline (CGP-12,104-A). Both enantiomers have antidepressant effects but levoprotiline also is an antihistamine and dextroprotiline has many other pharmacological actions.

Mood-stimulating drugs used primarily in the treatment of affective disorders and related conditions. Several MONOAMINE OXIDASE INHIBITORS are useful as antidepressants apparently as a long-term consequence of their modulation of catecholamine levels. The tricyclic compounds useful as antidepressive agents (ANTIDEPRESSIVE AGENTS, TRICYCLIC) also appear to act through brain catecholamine systems. A third group (ANTIDEPRESSIVE AGENTS, SECOND-GENERATION) is a diverse group of drugs including some that act specifically on serotonergic systems.
