Biochem/physiol Actions
Caramiphen hydrochloride is non-narcotic and possesses many biological functionalities of being antitussive, anticonvulsive, and neuroprotective. It induces sensory block and displays less toxicity when compared to bupivacaine. The local anesthetic functionality of caramiphen is mediated by its inhibitory effect on voltage-gated Na+ currents.
Caramiphen is a muscarinic acetylcholine receptor antagonist.
Caramiphen is an anti-muscarinic similar to atropine; muscarinic acetylcholine receptor antagonist. Caramiphen is commonly used as a cough suppresant, but is also administered for the treatment of Parkinson′s disease. The compound has also been shown to have anti-depressant properties that may involve inhibition of G protein-coupled inwardly rectifying potassium channel GIRK.
