| Bioactivity | Memantine-d3 (hydrochloride) is deuterium labeled Memantine. Memantine is an orally active, noncompetitive N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) antagonist. Memantine can be used for the research of moderate-to-severe Alzheimer's disease (AD)[1][2][3]. |
| 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]. |
