  • The pH level of Nikethamide depends on its formulation: Aqueous solution (Nikethamide dissolved in water): Typically neutral to slightly acidic (pH ~6 7). Injectable solutions (historically used): Often adjusted to physiological pH (~7.0 7.4) for compatibility with the body.
  • The particle size of Nikethamide depends on its formulation and processing: Pure crystalline form: Typically ranges from micron-sized to sub-millimeter-sized crystals. Pharmaceutical-grade powder: Often micronized for better dissolution, with particle sizes in the range of 10 100 micrometers ( m). Injectable formulations (historically used): Dissolved in solution, so particle size is not relevant.

Product Description

Nikethamide is a central nervous system (CNS) stimulant that primarily acts as a respiratory stimulant. It was previously used in medicine to treat conditions like respiratory depression and to counteract the effects of barbiturate overdose. However, due to its side effects and potential for causing seizures, its medical use has been largely discontinued.

Chemical Information

  • IUPAC Name: N,N-Diethyl-3-pyridinecarboxamide
  • Molecular Formula: C10H14N2O
  • Molecular Weight: 178.23 g/mol
  • Appearance: Usually available as a clear solution or tablets in past formulations.

Pharmacology & Mechanism of Action

Nikethamide stimulates the medullary respiratory center, leading to increased respiration rate and depth. It may also have some cardiovascular stimulant effects. Unlike other stimulants such as caffeine or amphetamines, its primary action is on respiratory function rather than general arousal or alertness.

Uses (Historical and Limited Modern Applications)

  • Previously used to treat respiratory depression from drug overdose, anesthesia, or other conditions.
  • Some use in sports doping (now banned).
  • Occasionally used as a stimulant in veterinary medicine.

Side Effects and Risks

  • Seizures (especially in high doses)
  • Tremors and convulsions
  • Nausea and vomiting
  • Cardiovascular issues (e.g., hypertension, tachycardia)
  • Allergic reactions

Current Status

Nikethamide has been banned or discontinued in most countries due to safety concerns, particularly its potential to cause convulsions and its lack of effectiveness compared to modern alternatives. It is prohibited in competitive sports by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA).
