Description
Curator's Comment: description was created based on several sources, including: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8277504 | https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24898652 | http://adisinsight.springer.com/drugs/800027387

Dimiracetam is a nootropic drug of the racetam family. Dimiracetam inhibited the NMDA-induced increase of [3H]D-Asp release from hippocampal synaptosomes. The increased potency and longer duration of action of dimiracetam, together with the potential cognition enhancing property makes it a very promising and safe for the treatment of neuropathic pain conditions for which there are very limited therapeutic options. Dimiracetam is in Phase II clinical trials for the treatment of HIV-associated pain and in phase I clinical trials for the treatment of osteoarthritis pain.

Sample Use Guides

400 mg b.i.d. and doubling the dose every two weeks until a maximum of 1600 mg b.i.d. (8 weeks treatment).
Route of Administration: Oral
Dimiracetam proved to be even more potent in the spinal cord, as the NMDA-induced increase of [3H]D-Asp release was already completely abolished at 1 uM.
