08-22-2021-0310 - Remacemide

 Remacemide is a drug which acts as a low-affinity NMDA antagonist with sodiumchannel blocking properties.[2] It has been studied for the treatment of acute ischemic stroke,[3][4] epilepsy,[5] Huntington's disease, and Parkinson's disease.

Because remacemide has only a modest effect on seizure frequency and causes dizziness, it is no longer believed that remacemide will be an effective treatment for epilepsy.[6] Although no such statement has been made about remacemide's potential for treating stroke, Huntington's, or Parkinson's, remacemide is no longer being developed for these conditions.[citation needed]

Remacemide is also known as remacemide hydrochloride, (±)-2-amino-N-(1-methyl-1,2-diphenylethyl)-acetamide hydrochloride, or FPL 12924AA.[7]
