    Product Description

    MDL 72222 is an antagonist of the serotonin (5-HT) receptor subtype 5-HT3 (IC50 = 0.82 nM).1 It is selective for 5-HT3 over 5-HT1 and 5-HT2 receptors and α1-, α2-, and β-adrenergic receptors (IC50s = >10,000 nM for all), as well as the histamine H1 receptor (IC50 = 3,800 nM). Intraplantar administration of MDL 72222 (10 and 100 µg/animal) inhibits formalin-induced paw licking and complete Freund’s adjuvant-induced decreases in paw withdrawal latency in mice.2 It inhibits emesis induced by cisplatin (Item No. 13119) in dogs when administered at a dose of 0.5 mg/kg.3

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
