| Targets |
Mexiletine D6 hydrochloride targets voltage-gated sodium channels, inhibiting the inward sodium current required for the initiation and conduction of impulses in the heart. This inhibition reduces the rate of rise of the action potential, stabilizing the cardiac membrane and preventing arrhythmias. As a deuterated analog of mexiletine hydrochloride, it retains the same pharmacological target and mechanism of action. The compound is a Class IB antiarrhythmic agent. Its molecular targets include voltage-gated sodium channels involved in cardiac action potential modulation.
