Rolicyclidine
Rolicyclidine Uses, Dosage, Side Effects, Food Interaction and all others data.
Rolicyclidine (PCPy) is classified as a dissociative anesthetic agent. It also has hallucinogenic and sedative properties. Because of its pharmacodynamic similarity to the drug phencyclidine (PCP), rolicyclidine was added to the Schedule I list of illegal drugs in the USA in the 1970s.
Rolicyclidine is similar in effects to phencyclidine but is slightly less potent and has less stimulant effects. Instead it acts by inducing a sedative effect described as being somewhat similar to a barbiturate, but with additional PCP-like dissociative, anaesthetic and hallucinogenic effects.
