Mespirenone (ZK 94679, 15β,16β-methylene-spironolactone) is a steroid aldosterone antagonist. In addition, it is a quite specific inhibitor of adrenocortical mineralocorticoid synthesis. In rodents mespirenone effectively prevents aldosterone-induced hypertension. It exerts natriuretic efficacy. Although it reached phase II clinical trials, it was discontinued in 1989.
