Application

Nomifensine maleate salt has been used to study the β-CFT (cocaine analogue) binding using human embryonic kidney 293T cells.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Nomifensine maleate is a selective dopamine uptake inhibitor interacting with the dopamine transporter, at a site different from that of cocaine; antidepressant. Nomifensine serves as an antidepressant and is known to cause frequent hemolytic anemia. The aniline group in this compound results in blood and liver toxicities.
