RTI-336, (LS-193,309, (-)-2β-(3-(4-methylphenyl)isoxazol-5-yl)-3β-(4-chlorophenyl)tropane) is a phenyltropane derivative which acts as a potent and selective dopamine reuptake inhibitor and stimulant drug. It binds to the dopamine transporter with around 20x the affinity of cocaine,[1] however it produces relatively mild stimulant effects, with a slow onset and long duration of action.[2] These characteristics make it a potential candidate for treatment of cocaine addiction, as a possible substitute drug analogous to how methadone is used for treating heroin abuse.[3][4] RTI-336 fully substitutes for cocaine in addicted monkeys and supports self-administration,[5][6] and significantly reduces rates of cocaine use, especially when combined with SSRIs,[7] and research is ongoing to determine whether it could be a viable substitute drug in human cocaine addicts.
