(s)-citalopram

Escitalopram (Seroplex) is a furancarbonitrile that is one of the SEROTONIN UPTAKE INHIBITORS used as an antidepressant. The drug is also effective in reducing ethanol uptake in alcoholics and is used in depressed patients who also suffer from tardive dyskinesia in preference to tricyclic antidepressants, which aggravate this condition.

Citalopram (Lu 10-171 is an orally active, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI), a selective 5-hydroxytryptamine reuptake inhibitor, and a racemic mixture of the S(+)-enantiomer (Escitalopram) and the R(-)-enantiomer.Citalopram exhibits antidepressant activity and enhances serotonergic neurotransmission. It can be used to study Alzheimer's disease.

Escitalopram Oxalate ((S)-(+)Citalopram oxalate) is a selective serotonin (5-HT) reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) with Ki of 0.89 nM.

(R)-Citalopram oxalate is a weak selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) that antagonises its S-isomer (escitalopram), slightly reducing its inhibition of the serotonin transporter, and exhibits anticonvulsant and antidepressant effects.

Citalopram-d6 is a deuterated compound of Citalopram. Citalopram has a CAS number of 59729-33-8. Citalopram (Lu 10-171 is an orally active, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI), a selective 5-hydroxytryptamine reuptake inhibitor, and a racemic mixture of the S(+)-enantiomer (Escitalopram) and the R(-)-enantiomer.Citalopram exhibits antidepressant activity and enhances serotonergic neurotransmission.
