Scientific Background | Flupirtine maleate is a non-opioid analgesic with neuroprotective properties, acting as a selective neuronal potassium channel opener and NMDA receptor antagonist. In neurodegenerative disease research, flupirtine has been shown to reduce excitotoxicity, oxidative stress, and apoptosis in neuronal cells. It enhances mitochondrial function and supports neuronal survival, making it a candidate for therapeutic intervention in conditions such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease. Its dual action on pain modulation and neuroprotection underscores its relevance in neuroscience. |
