    Product Description

    Bicifadine is an inhibitor of the serotonin transporter (SERT), dopamine transporter (DAT), and norepinephrine transporter (NET).1 It binds these transporters (Kis = 2.4, 5.2, and 5.4 µM, respectively) and inhibits serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine reuptake in intact cells expressing the human transporters (IC50s = 117, 910, and 55 nM, respectively). Bicifadine increases the mechanical withdrawal threshold in a rat model of acute inflammatory pain induced by subplantar injection of brewer’s yeast (ED50 = 9.2 mg/kg) and decreases writhing in mouse model of persistent abdominal pain induced by phenyl-p-quinone (PPQ; ED50 = 13.2 mg/kg). It also reduces paw licking in the first and second phases of the formalin test in mice and rats when administered 30 minutes prior to formalin.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
