Alaproclate is a selective 5-HT uptake inhibitor. Alaproclate enantiomers block potassium and NMDA receptor currents in a stereoselective manner. Alaproclate was practically devoid of action on a number of receptors as examined in binding studies in vitro: 5-HT, histamine-H1, alpha 1, -alpha 2-adrenergic and dopamine D2 receptors. Alaproclate was investigated in trials for the treatment of depression and dementia.
