Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Alaproclate HCl is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI). It inhibits depletion of serotonin (5-HT) induced by 4-methyl-α-ethyl-m-tyramine in rat cerebral cortex, hippocampus, hypothalamus, and striatum. Alaproclate inhibits NMDA-evoked currents and depolarization-induced voltage-dependent potassium currents in rat hippocampal neurons.
