Almitrine mesylate
Almitrine Mesylate is the mesylate form of almitrine, a diphenylmethylpiperazine derivative and respiratory stimulant that can be used to improve oxygenation. Upon systemic administration, almitrine targets, binds to and activates the peripheral chemoreceptors located on the carotid bodies. This enhances respiration and increases arterial oxygen tension while decreasing arterial carbon dioxide tension.
