Description
(extracted from source data)
DESCRIPTION
The INN for this compound is racemetirosine, indicating that it is a racemic mix of its R and S enantiomers. We show the non-isomeric structure to represent this mixture. The website rxlist.com describes the approved drug, Demser, as (-)-α-methyl-L-tyrosine, but shows a non-stereo molecular structure. We have annotated both versions (racemic and S-enantiomer (L or α) with the same US FDA approval date, as the exact compostion of the approved drug is unclear.
