Radafaxine (developmental code GW-353,162; also known as (2S,3S)-hydroxybupropion or (S,S)-hydroxybupropion

GlaxoSmithKline in the 2000s for a variety of different indications but was never marketed.[2] These uses included treatment of restless legs syndrome, major depressive disorder, bipolar disorder, neuropathic pain, fibromyalgia, and obesity.[2] Regulatory filing was planned for 2007,[3] but development was discontinued in 2006 due to "poor test results".[4]

Pharmacology

Pharmacodynamics

Radafaxine is described as a

abuse potential similar to bupropion.[8]

Chemistry

Radafaxine is a potent

Wellbutrin. More specifically, "hydroxybupropion" is an analogue of bupropion, and radafaxine is an isolated isomer ((2S,3S)-) of hydroxybupropion.[9] Therefore, radafaxine builds on at least some of the properties of bupropion in humans.[3] Another analogue of bupropion, manifaxine (GW-320,659), was derived from radafaxine and was also studied.[10]
