Taltrimide, a taurine derivative that was developed as an anticonvulsive agent. Taltrimide strongly inhibits the sodium-independent binding of taurine to synaptic membranes of the brain and it does not appear to bind to GABAA and benzodiazepine receptor. The drug was studied in phase II clinical trial Finland as an anticonvulsant agent to treat epilepsy. However, the further development of this drug was discontinued.
