Carphedon , also phenylpiracetam , is a phenyl derivative of the nootropic piracetam . It increases physical performance and raises the tolerance level against cold and stress . Animal research has shown evidence of antiamnesic , antidepressant , anticonvulsant , antipsychotic , anxiolytic, and  memory enhancing effects. Carphedon is considered a designer stimulant and is on the doping list . Like bromantane , carphedon was probably developed in Russia in the 1980s for military use and sport.

pharmacology

Few small clinical studies have shown possible links between prescribing Carphedon and improvement of some encephalopathic conditions, such as cerebral blood vessel lesions , traumatic brain injury,  and certain types of glioma .

Carphedon reverses the  central depressant  effect of the benzodiazepine diazepam , improves operational behavior, reduces post-rotational nystagmus , protects against retrograde amnesia and has anticonvulsant  properties.

In  Wistar rats  with gravitation-dependent cerebral ischemia, it reduced the extent of manifestations of neuralgic deficits, stabilized locomotor , exploration and memory functions, increased the survival rate and promoted restoration of local cerebral blood flow in occlusion of carotid arteries  more than piracetam did.

In rats, it led to reduction in the number of nACh - and  NMDA receptors and increasing the density of  D 1 - , D 2 - and D 3 receptors.

doping

By February 2006, sixteen athletes had been convicted of doping with Carphedon, including in March 2005 professional cyclist Danilo Hondo from the Gerolsteiner team. The last known case was the Russian biathlete Olga Pyljowa at the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin on February 16, 2006.

On August 8, 2008, the Russian athlete Viktor Burajew was tested for Carphedon with a positive A-sample. The B sample is still pending.

drug

In Germany and Austria there are currently no finished medicinal products with this active ingredient available.

In Russia the preparation is marketed under the name Phenotropil .

Stereochemistry

Carphedon contains a stereocenter and consists of two enantiomers. This is a racemate , a 1: 1 mixture of ( R ) - and ( S ) -form:

Derivatives

  • E1R , (4 R , 5 S ) -5-methyl-4-phenylpiracetam, is a positive  allosteric modulator of  the  sigma-1 receptor , improves cognition and is effective against cholinergic dysfunction in mice without influencing locomotor activity. Pretreatment with E1R improved the stimulating effect of the σ 1 R agonist  PRE-084 and encouraged retention of passive avoidance. It reduced cognitive impairment induced by scopolamine . The cognitive ability enhancing effect of E1R is stronger than that of ( R ) -phenylpiracetam. Because E1R had no effect on locomotor functions, it was found to be free of potential motor side effects .
  • In Phenylpiracetamhydrazid , also known as Fonturacetamhydrazid which is amide group by a hydrazide replaced group. It was first introduced by Russian researchers in 1980 as part of a series of chemical substances studied as anticonvulsants . An ED 50 of 310 mg / kg was determined in an electric shock test.
