Latanoprost (free acid) is a metabolite of latanoprost which has been approved for use as an ocular hypotensive drug. Latanoprost is an isopropyl ester prodrug which is converted to the Latanoprost-acid by endogenous esterase enzymes. The free acid is pharmacologically active and is 200 times more potent than latanoprost as an agonist of the human recombinant Prostaglandin F receptor. However, the free Latanoprost-acid is more irritating and less effective than Latanoprost when applied directly to the eyes of human glaucoma patients.

m-Chlorophenylpiperazine (meta-chlorophenylpiperazine or mCPP) is a psychoactive substance, which is illegal in many countries but can be found on the black market. It induces endocrine, neurological and psychiatric effects. mCPP is a partial agonist at the 5-HT2C receptor but antagonized the 5-HT2B and 5-HT3 receptors. mCPP is also an active metabolite of the drug trazodone, which is used as an effective antidepressant drug with a broad therapeutic spectrum, including anxiolytic efficacy. It is known, that mCPP induces migraine attacks and that the decrease of food intake induced by the mCPP depends on its ability to act as a serotonin agonist is a brain.
