Pharmacology[edit | edit source]

DOV 216,303 is a potent inhibitor of the reuptake of serotonin, norepinephrine, and dopamine. This triple reuptake mechanism may provide a wider therapeutic range than traditional SSRIs or SNRIs. It is structurally related to aminorex, a stimulant drug that was withdrawn from the market due to severe side effects.

Development[edit | edit source]

DOV 216,303 was developed by DOV Pharmaceutical, a biopharmaceutical company that specializes in the development of novel therapeutics for neurological and psychiatric disorders. The drug was in Phase I clinical trials when DOV Pharmaceutical decided to discontinue its development.
