Difluoropine (O-620) is a
benztropine and has similar anticholinergic and antihistamine effects in addition to its dopamine reuptake inhibitory action.[2]
Difluoropine has some stimulant effects in animals, although it is significantly less powerful than many of the potent
WIN 35,428 and RTI-55.[3] It showed promising effects in alleviating the symptoms of Parkinson's disease in an animal model of the disorder.[4]
It is not explicitly illegal anywhere in the world as of 2008[update], but might be considered to be a
controlled substance analogue
of cocaine on the grounds of its related chemical structure, in some jurisdictions such as the United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.
