Rescinnamine Anaprel

Other reserpine derivatives which have been used in psychiatry include 11-demethoxyreserpine (deserpidine, Harmonyl) and methyl 0-3,4,5-tri-methoxycinnamoyl reserpate (rescinnamine, Anaprel, Moderil). The compound tetrabenazine (Nitoman VI)) which lacks an indole nucleus has similar pharmacological actions to reserpine but its side effects are milder, perhaps because it has few peripheraljactions.
