Azepexole (B-HT 933) is a selective α2 adrenergic inducer with over 300-fold selectivity for α2 adrenergic receptors over α1 adrenergic receptors. Azepexole can be used to study the biological functions of α2 adrenergic receptors and inhibition of related diseases. Azepexole may also play a role in regulating mood and improving cognitive function[1].
