ABSTRACT -

Apinocaltamide is an investigational, orally available small molecule that blocks low-voltage-activated T-type calcium channels, including Cav3 channel subtypes. It was studied for neurologic disorders such as epilepsy and essential tremor. Public development records indicate that programmes were discontinued or terminated; it has no broadly approved therapeutic indication.

        • The metabolic interaction profile is not fully established
        • Follow protocol restrictions for enzyme-inducing or enzyme-inhibiting medicines

PRECAUTIONS –

  • Avoid driving or hazardous work until individual effects are known
