Diethylpropion is a sympathomimetic stimulant drug marketed as an appetite suppressant. Chemically, it is the N,N-diethyl analog of cathinone. Its mechanism of action is similar to other appetite suppressants such as sibutramine, phentermine and dextroamphetamine. Diethylpropion is an amphetamine that stimulates neurons to release or maintain high levels of a particular group of neurotransmitters known as catecholamines; these include dopamine and norepinephrine. High levels of these catecholamines tend to suppress hunger signals and appetite. Diethylpropion (through catecholamine elevation) may also indirectly affect leptin levels in the brain. It is theorized that diethylpropion can raise levels of leptin which signal satiety. It is also theorized that increased levels of the catecholamines are partially responsible for halting another chemical messenger known as neuropeptide Y. This peptide initiates eating, decreases energy expenditure, and increases fat storage. It is used in the management of exogenous obesity as a short-term adjunct (a few weeks) in a regimen of weight reduction based on caloric restriction.

Triclofos is primarily indicated in conditions like Insomnia, and can also be given in adjunctive therapy as an alternative drug of choice in Nausea, vertigo, labyrinthine disorders. It is also used sedate people suffering from anxiety or tension before medical investigations. Triclofos is converted to Trichloroethanol in the body .This act on brain and produces sleep. Trichloroethanol decreases time taken to fall asleep and lengthen the sleep. Triclofos is most commonly used agent for sedation in neonates as well as in older infants and children in Japan.
