Acamprosate calcium

InhA, Func 77337-73-6
Catalog No. ABIN5677872

Quick Overview for Acamprosate calcium (ABIN5677872)

Application

Inhibition Assay (InhA), Functional Studies (Func)
  • Purpose

    Acamprosate, also known by the brand name Campral™, is a drug used for treating alcohol dependence. Acamprosate is thought to stabilize the chemical balance in the brain that would otherwise be disrupted by alcoholism, possibly by blocking glutaminergic N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors, while gamma-aminobutyric acid type A receptors are activated. Reports indicate that acamprosate only works with a combination of attending support groups and abstinence from alcohol. Certain serious side effects include allergic reactions, irregular heartbeats, and low or high blood pressure, while less serious side effects include headaches, insomnia, and impotence. Acamprosate should not be taken by people with kidney problems or allergies to the drug.

    Storage Comment

    For the majority of compounds, they could be dissolved in DMSO or other organic solvent.
    Their stock solution can be stored at -20°C for up to 3 months and aliquoted for sampling convenience.
    Several freeze/thaw cycles should not damage the activity of our small molecule products.
    However, in many instances the aqueous solutions of some compounds need to be made fresh and cannot be stored. For these compounds, their solution should be prepared just before use and stored no longer than 24 hours.
