Delequamine (INN ; developmental code names RS-15385, RS-15385-197) is a potent and selective α2-adrenergic receptor antagonist which was under development for the treatment of erectile dysfunction and major depressive disorder but was never marketed.[1][2][3][4]
It is structurally related to the naturally occurring α2-adrenergic receptor antagonist yohimbine but has greater selectivity in comparison.[3][4] The drug has been found to affect sexual function and sleep in humans.[4]
Delequamine reached phase 3 clinical trials prior to the discontinuation of its development.[1] The drug was under development in the 1990s and its development was discontinued by 1999.[1] It was first described in the scientific literature by 1990.[5]
