Description

Methoserpidine is a synthetic isomer of reserpine, used in the 1960s as an antihypertensive drug. Initially, it was reported to be free from CNS side effects of reserpine (mild suppression of alertness, and mental depression). However, later clinical experience has shown that in a significant proportion of patients administration of the drug lead to episodes of depression.
