Tamitinol (also known as EMD 21657), a neurotropic drug that was developed as a cognition enhancer for the treatment of diffuse cerebral disease and organic brain syndrome. Tamitinol participated in clinical trials where the therapeutic effects of the drug were shown to be statistically significant compared to placebo in the global response. However, the treatment was interrupted because of side effects (increased aggressiveness, rash) in 2 cases.
