Opipramol (dihydrochloride)
Opipramol (Ensidon) is an atypical tricyclic antidepressant (TCA) . Opipramol acts primarily as a sigma (σ) receptor agonist and can potently interact with sigma recognition sites with a Ki value of 50 nM. Opipramol can be used for the research of generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) [1][2].
