摘要 |
The present invention relates to an aryloxypropanamine containing one or more deuterium or <SUP>13</SUP>C in place of a hydrogen or carbon, respectively. These isotopic aryloxypropanamines of the invention are inhibitors of serotonin and norepinephrine uptake and possess unique biopharmaceutical and pharmacokinetic properties compared to the responding light atom isotopologues. The invention further provides compositions comprising these isotopic aryloxypropanamines and methods of treating diseases and conditions linked to reduced neurotransmission of norepinephrine and/or serotonin. It further provides methods for using these isotopic aryloxypropanamines to accurately determine the concentration of the light atom isotopologues in biological fluids and of studying the metabolism of the light atom isotopologues.
