| Bioactivity | Ketotifen-d3 (fumarate) is the deuterium labeled Ketotifen fumarate. Ketotifen (HC 20511) fumarate is a second-generation noncompetitive H1-antihistamine and mast cell stabilizer, which is used to prevent asthma attacks[1][2]. | ||||||||||||
| Invitro | Stable heavy isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, and other elements have been incorporated into drug molecules, largely as tracers for quantitation during the drug development process. Deuteration has gained attention because of its potential to affect the pharmacokinetic and metabolic profiles of drugs[1]. | ||||||||||||
