Pharmacology[edit | edit source]

Amifitadine is a triple reuptake inhibitor, meaning it inhibits the reuptake of three neurotransmitters: serotonin, norepinephrine, and dopamine. This increases the amount of these neurotransmitters in the brain, which can have various effects on mood, cognition, and other neurological functions.

History[edit | edit source]

Amifitadine was first developed by the pharmaceutical company Euthymics Bioscience, which later became known as Neurovance. The drug was initially investigated as a potential treatment for depression and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).

Clinical trials[edit | edit source]

In clinical trials, amifitadine has been shown to have potential as a treatment for depression and ADHD. However, further research is needed to fully understand its efficacy and safety profile.
