Biochem/physiol Actions

Flupirtine is commercially available as maleate salt. It exists in two polymorphs : flupirtine maleate A and B. Flupirtine is useful in treating muscular spasm, muscle tension and muscle stiffness. It is known to be effective in relieving back pain. Along with cytoprotection, flupirtine also offers protection against neurodegenerative disorders such as multiple sclerosis, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Alzheimer′s disease, Parkinson′s disease, Huntington′s chorea and AID (acquired immunodeficiency) associated encephalopathy. Flupirtine is found to be a potential drug for eye-related problems like maculopathy including diabetic retinopathy, retinitis pigmentosa and glaucoma. It is also proved to be helpful in preventing cardiac associated disorders such as myocardial ischemia and infarction, cerebral ischemia and infarction. Hepatitis is also prevented by the use of flupirtine.[1]

To demonstrate non-inferior/superior efficacy of flupirtine modified release (MR) compared with tramadol/placebo for the management of moderate to severe chronic low back pain (LBP). Randomized, double-blind, active-/placebo-controlled double-dummy multicenter study, performed in 31 German study centers. LBP patients (n = 363) with

L-DOPA-induced dyskinesias (LID) represent a severe complication of long-time pharmacotherapy in Parkinson's disease that necessitates novel therapeutics. The acute and chronic effects of K(V)7.2-7.5 channel openers (retigabine, flupirtine) on the severity of LID and parkinsonian signs were examined in comparison
