Ciclazindol (WY-23409) is an

H1 receptor.[5][6][7] As suggested by its local anesthetic properties,[6] ciclazindol may also inhibit sodium channels. It is known to block potassium channels as well.[8][9]

The dosage in human volunteers is stated to be 25mg daily.[1] However, doses of up to 200mg have also been reported.[2] This is surprising since the dosage of mazindol is only 2-4mg per day.

Ciclazindol is reported to have an IC50 of 1.3nM for the dopamine transporter (cmp 23).[10]
