- Summary
Epicriptine is a nootropic with an unknown mechanism of action indicated in individuals over sixty who manifest signs and symptoms of an idiopathic decline in mental capacity.
- Generic Name
- Epicriptine
- DrugBank Accession Number
- DB11275
- Background
Epicriptine is also known as beta-dihydroergocryptine presents a molecular formula of 9,10 alpha-dihydro-13'-epi-b-ergocryptine. Together with the alpha-dihydroergocryptine, it represents one-third of the ergoloid mesylate mixture. Epicriptine differs from the alpha form on the position of one methyl group.1 To know more about the mixture please visit Ergoloid mesylate
