Description

NS-2359, an orally active, triple monoamine reuptake inhibitor that inhibits the reuptake of dopamine, noradrenaline and serotonin, is being developed by Saniona and the Treatment Research Center (TRC) at the University of Pennsylvania for the treatment of Cocaine abuse. NS-2359’s pharmacological profile means that it may be able to reduce cocaine withdrawal symptoms, reduce cocaine craving and reduce cocaine-induced euphoria. Previously NS-2359 was in clinical trials for the treatment of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder and major depressive disorder, but development was discontinued due to lack of effectiveness.
