• Weltgesundheitsorganisation (WHO)

  Phenmetrazine, a sympathomimetic amine, was introduced in 1956 for use as an anorexic agent. Although preparations remain available, the use of phenmetrazine is no longer indicated for the treatment of obesity. Moreover, since it has been subject to abuse, and because dependence can occur, it is now controlled under Schedule II of the 1971 Convention on Psychotropic Substances. (Reference: (UNCPS2) United Nations Convention on Psychotropic Substances (II), , , 1971)

• Pharmakologie

  Phenmetrazine is a sympathomimetic drug used primarily as an appetite depressant. Its actions and mechanisms are similar to dextroamphetamine. Amphetamines are non-catecholamine sympathomimetic amines with CNS stimulant activity. Phenmetrazine was originally sold under the tradename Preludin as an anorectic. It has since been removed from the market. It is by some considered to have a greater potential for addiction than the amphetamines, and has been abused in many countries, for example Sweden.
