PDE5 inhibitor that improves nitric oxide signaling, erectile function, and selected vascular-performance outcomes.
Tesofensine (NS2330) is a triple monoamine reuptake inhibitor with affinity for dopamine (DAT), serotonin (SERT), and norepinephrine (NET) transporters. It suppresses appetite through indirect stimulation of alpha-1 adrenoceptor and dopamine D1 receptor pathways, reflecting additive effects of increased NE and DA activity. Tesofensine is a dual-action drug with both anorexigenic properties (appetite suppression) and metabolic properties (increased energy expenditure), silencing GABAergic hypothalamic neurons in the lateral hypothalamus.
