    Product Description

    Lomerizine is a voltage-dependent calcium channel blocker that inhibits low- and high-voltage activated calcium currents in rat hippocampal CA1 pyramidal neurons with IC50 values of 1.9 and 4 μM, respectively.1,2 It inhibits vasoconstriction induced by potassium chloride, serotonin (5-HT; Item No. 14332), or vasopressin in isolated rat basilar arteries when used at a concentration of 1 μM.1 Lomerizine (1 μM) reduces neurotoxicity induced by glutamate, NMDA, or kainate in rat retinal primary cell cultures.3 It reduces retinal damage in a rat model of retinal ischemia-reperfusion injury when administered at a dose of 1 mg/kg.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
