Description:

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

Vofopitant (also known as GR-205,171) is an NK1 receptor antagonist. It has antiemetic effects as with other NK1 antagonists, and also shows anxiolytic actions in animals. It was trialled for applications such as the treatment of social phobia and post-traumatic stress disorder, but did not prove sufficiently effective to be marketed.
