Esreboxetine (developmental code namesAXS-14, PNU-165442G) is aselectivenorepinephrine reuptake inhibitor which was under development byPfizer for the treatment ofneuropathic pain andfibromyalgia but failed to show significant benefit over currently available medications and was discontinued.[1][2][3][4] It is the (S,S)-(+)-enantiomer ofreboxetine and is even more selective as a norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor in comparison.[1][5]
However, recently it has been found that esreboxetine could be effective in fibromyalgia patients.[6]
