Comment: Venlafaxine is a selective serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SNRI); a bicyclic antidepressant. Venlafaxine is a racemic mixture of R (PubChem CID 9795623) and S (PubChem CID 11846746) stereoisomers, which have assay data in PubChem but its is unclear if these apply to the experimentally separated forms. Marketed formulations may contain venlafaxine hydrochloride (PubChem CID 62923).
The major active metabolite of venlafaxine, desvenlafaxine (O-desmethylvenlafaxine) has also been developed as a drug. Ligand Activity Visualisation ChartsThese are box plot that provide a unique visualisation, summarising all the activity data for a ligand taken from ChEMBL and GtoPdb across multiple targets and species. Click on a plot to see the median, interquartile range, low and high data points. A value of zero indicates that no data are available. A separate chart is created for each target, and where possible the algorithm tries to merge ChEMBL and GtoPdb targets by matching them on name and UniProt accession, for each available species. However, please note that inconsistency in naming of targets may lead to data for the same target being reported across multiple charts. ✖View more information in the IUPHAR Pharmacology Education Project: venlafaxine |
