Product Description: Nicergoline, an ergoline derivative ester of bromonicotinic acid, is a potent, selective and orally active antagonist of α1A-adrenoceptor. Nicergoline has vasodilator effects. Nicergoline also has ameliorative effects on cognitive function in mouse models of Alzheimer's disease[1][2].
Applications: Neuroscience-Neuromodulation
Formula: C24H26BrN3O3
