Product Description
Nefopam-d3 ( HCl) is the deuterated form of Nefopam HCl. Nefopam HCl (Fenazoxine HCl) is a centrally acting but non-opioid reliever of moderate and severe pain. Nefopam HCl acts on mesenchymal cell beta-catenin levels in vitro and in vivo.
Nefopam-d3 hydrochloride (Fenazoxine-d3 (hydrochloride)) is a deuterated form of Nefopam hydrochloride, a centrally-acting, non-opioid analgesic drug used for the relief of moderate to severe pain. The incorporation of deuterium atoms (D3) typically reduces the rate of metabolic degradation, thereby potentially extending the half-life of the parent compound and enhancing its pharmacokinetic profile. It is used as an internal standard in analytical assays (e.g., LC-MS/MS) for quantifying Nefopam levels in biological samples, as well as for mechanistic studies of non-opioid analgesic pathways.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Central nervous system targets including monoamine reuptake transporters (serotonin, norepinephrine, dopamine) and calcium/sodium channels; also modulates beta-catenin protein levels in mesenchymal cells.
ln Vitro
Drug compounds have included stable heavy isotopes of carbon, hydrogen, and other elements, mostly as quantitative tracers while the drugs were being developed. Because deuteration may have an effect on a drug's pharmacokinetics and metabolic properties, it is a cause for concern [1].
Nefopam inhibits the reuptake of serotonin, norepinephrine, and dopamine in the CNS, contributing to its analgesic and antidepressant properties. In vitro, Nefopam has been shown to target the beta-catenin protein level in mesenchymal cells. For Nefopam-d3, the deuterated version is expected to bind with similar affinity to these targets, making it suitable for receptor binding assays using mass spectrometry detection.
Cell Assay
Nefopam has been shown to modulate beta-catenin levels in mesenchymal cells, with Nefopam hydrochloride affecting protein stability. The deuterated version is used to confirm these findings via isotope tracing. A typical protocol: Culture mesenchymal stem cells or fibroblasts. Treat cells with 10-100 uM Nefopam-d3 for 24-48 hours. Lyse cells and analyze beta-catenin protein expression by Western blot. Use LC-MS/MS to quantify the ratio of Nefopam-d3 to endogenous Nefopam or to trace its metabolic fate.
Animal Protocol
For pharmacokinetic studies in animals (e.g., rats, mice), Nefopam-d3 is administered intravenously (IV) or orally to serve as an internal standard for bioanalytical method validation. A typical protocol: Administer a known dose of Nefopam hydrochloride alongside a fixed amount of Nefopam-d3. Collect blood samples at various time points (0, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8, 12, 24 hours). Process plasma by protein precipitation and analyze by LC-MS/MS with multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) to quantify both unlabeled and deuterated drug. The deuterated standard enables accurate determination of Nefopam concentrations.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Nefopam-d3 has a molecular weight of 292.82 g/mol (free base) and is typically supplied as the hydrochloride salt. The pharmacokinetics of Nefopam in humans: oral bioavailability ~30-50% due to first-pass metabolism; peak plasma concentration reached in 1-2 hours; terminal half-life (t1/2) ~4-6 hours. Metabolism is primarily via N-demethylation and hydroxylation (CYP450 enzymes). The deuteration (d3) is expected to slow the rate of metabolism at the deuterated site, leading to a slight extension of half-life and reduced formation of deuterated metabolites.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Nefopam has a well-established clinical safety profile. Common adverse effects include nausea, dizziness, dry mouth, drowsiness, and sweating. At therapeutic doses, cardiovascular effects are minimal. Nefopam-d3, as a stable isotope-labeled analog, is considered non-toxic at the trace amounts used as an analytical standard. For research use, standard precautions for handling pharmaceutical compounds should be followed.

Additional Infomation
Nefopam-d3 is a research-grade stable isotope-labeled standard, not intended for human therapeutic use. It is used exclusively for analytical method development (e.g., bioequivalence studies, toxicokinetic studies) and as a tracer for metabolic studies of non-opioid analgesics. Nefopam (unlabeled) is approved in several countries for the treatment of moderate to severe pain. The deuterated form is not approved as a therapeutic agent and is for laboratory research use only.
