Description
Sources: http://eisai.jp/medical/products/di/EPI/CSP_C_EPI.pdf

Flopropione is an antispasmodic agent developed to relieve spasms in patients with hepatobiliary disorders, pancreatitis and urinary calculus. The mode of action is based on the inhibition of catechol-o-methyl-transferase (COMT), resulting in an adrenergic action, and anti-serotonin action. The current marketing status of the drug is unknown and considered to be "discontinued".
