Biological Activity

Description Dropropizine (UCB-1967,(±)- Dropropizine) is a racemic non-opiate antitussive agent, it is used as a cough suppressant.
In vitro

Dropropizine shows neither mutagenic nor clastogenic effects in Chinese hamster V79 and human EUE cells, while Lithium carbonicum manifestes a weak and mazindol a medium genotoxic response which is in both cases reduce in the presence of microsomal fraction S9. [1]

In vivo

Dropropizine exhibits antitussive activity in cats noticeably lower than Pinacidil and Codeine. [2] Dropropizine (100 mg/kg, b.w., intraperitoneally) has similar antitussive activity as that of EEPF (200 mg/kg, b.w., orally). [3] Dropropizine exhibits antitussive activity of 28.3% in mechanically induced cough in nonanaesthetized cats, comparable to prenoxdiazine (24.7%).[4] Dropropizine (dropro–dose 100 mg/kg b.w.) exhibits comparable cough-suppressing effect of mucilage from S. althaeae. Dropropizine (dropro–dose 100 mg/kg b.w.) exhibits antitussive activity less than E. officinalis on the mechanically induced cough reflex under experimental conditions. [5]
