How Nolodatac works

Nolodatac upregulates Bcl-2, increases glutathione levels, activates an inwardly rectifying potassium channel, and delays loss of intermitochondrial membrane calcium retention capacity. Nolodatac acts like a NMDA receptor antagonists, but does not bind to the receptor. One study concluded that the discriminative effects of flupirtine are neither of opioid nor of alpha-1 adrenergic type, but are primarily mediated through alpha-2 adrenergic mechanisms [PMID: 2901483].

Toxicity

Oral, mouse: LD50 = 300 mg/kg; Oral, rabbit: LD50 = 3200 mg/kg; Oral, rat: LD50 = 980 mg/kg.

Elimination Route

Bioavailability: 90% (oral), 70% (rectal)

Half Life

6.5 hrs (average), 11.2-16.8 hrs (average 14 hrs) (elderly), 8.7-10.9 hrs (average 9.8 hrs) (in those with moderate-level renal impairment).

Elimination Route

72% of flupirtine and its metabolites appear in urine and 18% appear in faeces.
