Substance Name: Dextromethorphan [USP:INN:BAN]
RN: 125-71-3
UNII: 7355X3ROTS
InChIKey: MKXZASYAUGDDCJ-NJAFHUGGSA-N
Note
- Methyl analog of DEXTRORPHAN that shows high affinity binding to several regions of the brain, including the medullary cough center. This compound is an NMDA receptor antagonist (RECEPTORS, N-METHYL-D-ASPARTATE) and acts as a non-competitive channel blocker. It is one of the widely used ANTITUSSIVES, and is also used to study the involvement of glutamate receptors in neurotoxicity.
