Description
Curator's Comment: description was created based on several sources, including https://pharmacybook.net/mydocalm/ | http://en.remedy-info.com/ovr0_midokalm.html | https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18482024 | https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/232053

Tolperisone is a centrally acting muscle relaxant first synthesized in 1956 and used in clinical practice since the 1960’s. Tolperisone is an aryl alkyl β-aminoketone with an asymmetric carbon atom α to the carbonyl group. The dextrorotatory enantiomer was reported less effective, however, no detailed analyses of the enantiomers are available. The precise mechanism of action of tolperisone is not fully known. The most prominent effect of tolperisone is its inhibitory action on pathways of spinal reflexes. It suppresses the mono and polysynaptic reflex transmission by both pre-synaptic and post-synaptic mechanisms.

Sample Use Guides

In Vivo Use Guide
The usual dose is Mydocalm (tolperisone) 150 mg, 1-3 times a day. It should be taken after meal. The maximum daily dose is 450 mg
Route of Administration: Oral
The sodium channel blocking effects of Tolperisone was characterized in electrophysiological experiments on dorsal root ganglion (DRG) cells. DRG cells were acutely dissociated from rat DRG of 6-day-old male rats. Tolperisone (0, 40, 80, 160, 320, and 640 mkM) dissolved in the extracellular solution were applied onto the cells via multibarreled ejection pipettes controlled by electromagnetic valves. Currents were recorded from fast-kinetics tetrodotoxin-sensitive DRG cells.
