34 results about "Monoamine reuptake inhibitor" patented technology

The invention relates to novel cyclohexylamine derivatives and their use in the treatment and/or prevention of central nervous system (CNS) disorders, such as depression, anxiety, schizophrenia and sleep disorder as well as methods for their synthesis. The invention also relates to pharmaceutical compositions containing the compounds of the invention, as well as methods of inhibiting reuptake of endogenous monoamines, such as dopamine, serotonin and norepinephrine from the synaptic cleft and methods of modulating one or more monoamine transporter.

The invention relates to novel tetralone based amines and their use in the treatment of central nervous system (CNS) disorders, such as depression, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and Parkinson's disease. The invention further relates to pharmaceutical compositions containing the compounds and compositions of the invention as well as methods of inhibiting reuptake of one or more monoamine, such as such as dopamine and norepinephrine, from the synaptic cleft, and methods of modulating one or more monoamine transporter.

Methods for the prevention or treatment of stress-related disorders by administering a therapeutically effective amount of a dual serotonin/norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor to an individual under stress are described. A triple monoamine reuptake inhibitor for serotonin/noradrenaline/dopamine may also be administered to an individual at risk for a stress-related disorder. In a preferred embodiment the compound is milnacipran and is prophylactically administered at an effective amount to delay or prevent stress-related disorders in an individual at risk.

The present invention relates to compositions and methods to treat ADHD with an α7 nAChR full agonist and psychostimulants and/or monoamine reuptake inhibitors.

The present invention is directed to aryl sulfamide derivatives of formula (I): or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, stereoisomer or tautomer thereof, which are monoamine reuptake inhibitors, compositions containing these derivatives, and methods of their use for the prevention and treatment of conditions, including, inter alia, vasomotor symptoms, sexual dysfunction, gastrointestinal disorders and genitourinary disorder, depression disorders, endogenous behavioral disorders, cognitive disorders, diabetic neuropathy, pain, and other diseases or disorders.

The invention provides bupropion analogue compounds capable of inhibiting the reuptake of one or more monoamines. The compounds may selectively bind to one or more monoamine transporters, including those for dopamine, norepinephrine, and serotonin. Such compounds may be used to treat conditions that are responsive to inhibition of the reuptake of monoamines, including addiction, depression, and obesity.

This invention provides pharmaceutical compositions comprising therapeutically effective amounts of a monoamine reuptake inhibitor and an SK inhibitor. In another aspect the invention provides novel benzoimidazole derivatives for use according to the invention.

The present invention develops methods for treating or preventing depression secondary to atypical pain (DSP). The methods generally comprise administering an effective amount of a monoamine reuptake inhibitor to treat or prevent the symptoms of DSP. In a preferred embodiment, a therapeutically effective dose of a specific type of dual serotonin norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SRNI) compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is administered. Most preferably the SNRI compounds are non-tricyclic SNRIs, wherein the serotonin reuptake inhibition is stronger than norepinephrine reuptake inhibition; NSRIs, wherein the norepinephrine reuptake inhibition is stronger than serotonin reuptake inhibition inhibition. The most preferred compound is milnacipran or a bioequivalent or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. Other preferred compounds are duloxetine, venlafaxine or bioequivalent or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. In another embodiment, a therapeutically effective amount of a particular type of non-tricyclic triple reuptake inhibitor ("TRI") compound, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, is administered. TRI compounds are characterized by blocking the reuptake (and thus increasing central concentrations) of three major brain monoamines: serotonin, norepinephrine and dopamine.

Novel tetracyclic dibenzo(e,h)azulene compounds of formula I; their pharmacologically acceptable derivatives; process and intermediates for their preparation; pharmaceutical compositions containing them and their activity and use in the treatment of central nervous system (CNS) diseases and conditions in humans and animals.

The present invention relates to a method of treating an incretin related disease such as diabetes, obesity and the like by delivery of butyric acid, bile acid, long chain fatty acid or glutamine to the colon by bypassing the upper digestive tract. The composition is combined either by the same or different route of administration with a monoamine reuptake inhibitor such as buproprion.

Novel 3,6-disubstituted pyrans, optionally with a further substituent at the 4-position, are monoamine reuptake inhibitors with activity profiles of anti-depressants.

The present invention provides compounds, specifically novel tropane analogs, capable of acting as inhibitors of reuptake of monoamines. In preferred embodiments, these compositions are selective inhibitors of serotonin and/or norepinephrine reuptake. Also provided herein are pharmaceutical compositions comprising novel tropane analogs and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, and methods for treating conditions in which inhibition of reuptake of monoamines is desired. The inventive compositions as described herein are also useful for medical therapy and diagnosis.
