Cyprodenate structure

Cyprodenate (Actebral) is a stimulant drug.[1] It was used for counteracting the effects of benzodiazepine tranquillizer drugs before the development of newer antidotes such as flumazenil.[2] It produces dimethylethanolamine as a metabolite, and so might be expected to produce nootropic effects.
