In Vivo Use Guide
Curator's Comment: In humans: 300 mg thrice daily, orally. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/4570903
With the dose given (200 mg/kg i.p.) brocresine caused inhibition of gastric histidine decarboxylase activity in both normal and vagally denervated rats.
Route of Administration: Intraperitoneal
In Vitro Use Guide
Tyrosine hydroxylase activity was assessed by incubation of hypothalamic cells for 1 h with 100 uM brocresine, an inhibitor of aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase.
