Mazindol was developed as an appetite suppressant. It exists in a dynamic equilibrium between three isomers (the keto and the R and S–ol forms, respectively) with the R or S–ol being the only relevant forms at physiologic pH. Both S- and R-mazindol supposed to target human serotonin and dopamine transporters. R-mazindol is the biologically relevant enantiomer.

Originator

Curator's Comment: Originator of R-enantiomer of mazindol is unknown. Mazindol was developed at Sandoz.
