Dimethocaine Hydrochloride

A local anesthetic with stimulant properties. Studies have shown its potency to be about half that of Cocain.
Dimethocaine Hydrochloride is a drug that belongs to the amide class. It has been shown to have significant effects on neuronal function in vivo, as well as on dopamine neurotransmission in vitro. It is also a substrate for uptake by the dopamine transporter and can inhibit locomotor activity in rats, suggesting it may be a potential therapeutic agent for the treatment of Parkinson's disease. It has been shown to be effective against cocaine addiction and can reduce angiogenic factors in vivo. The drug also interacts with other drugs, including synthetic cannabinoids and amphetamines, which are metabolized by CYP2B6 enzymes. These interactions may result in reduced efficacy of Dimethocaine Hydrochloride therapy.
