HIDE SMILES / InChI
Niperotidine is an H2 antagonist structurally related to ranitidine. H2 antagonists inhibit gastric acid secretion by selectively blocking histamine receptor type 2. Niperotidine was proposed for the treatment of peptic ulcer. Bedtime dose of niperotidine inhibits nocturnal gastric acid secretion in healthy subjects. The duration of niperotidine action was 5 to 7 hours. Twenty-five cases of acute hepatitis (including one death from fulminant hepatitis) associated with niperotidine use were reported in Italy between March and August 1995 and drug was withdrawn from the market. The methylenedioxy group of niperotidine is known to undergo metabolism to catechol and quinone metabolites.
