Esmirtazapine (S-(+)mirtazapine or ORG-50081) is an enantiomer of mirtazapine (REMERON®), a high-affinity antagonist at 5-HT2/5-HT3 and H1 receptors, used in the treatment of depression. Esmirtazapine has a shorter plasma half-life than the R(−) enantiomer. Esmirtazapine is preferentially metabolized into an 8-hydroxy glucuronide. Organon was developing esmirtazapine for the treatment of hot flushes (vasomotor symptoms) associated with the menopause and insomnia.
