Besipirdine (hydrochloride) is a potassium channel blocker with cholinergic and adrenergic activity. The cholinergic activity of Besipirdine (hydrochloride) involves stimulating phosphatidylinositol turnover and reducing potassium currents. The adrenergic activity of Besipirdine (hydrochloride) involves stimulating norepinephrine release, which is attributed to the inhibition of presynaptic alpha2-adrenergic receptors and the inhibition of norepinephrine uptake. Besipirdine (hydrochloride) may be used in research for Alzheimers disease[1].
