Cyheptamide was a investigational new drug that was developed by Ayerst Research Laboratories in the 1960s and was evaluated as an anticonvulsant.[1]
Cyheptamide undergoes significant metabolic transformation in both animals and humans, primarily through hydroxylation pathways.[2]
Cyheptamide exhibits moderate acute toxicity in animal models, with species-specific variations in lethal dose values.[3]
