Dextrorphan (DXO) is a psychoactive drug of the morphinan chemical class which acts as an antitussive or cough suppressant and dissociative hallucinogen. It is the dextrorotatory-stereoisomer of racemorphan, the levo-half being levorphanol. Dextrorphan is produced by O-demethylation of dextromethorphan by CYP2D6. Dextrorphan is an NMDA antagonist and contributes to the psychoactive effects of dextromethorphan.[1]

Pharmacology[edit]
- Noncompetitive[citation needed] N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) antagonist.[2][3][4]
- σ1 (118 nM)[5] and σ2 sigma receptor agonist.[6][7]
- Serotonin reuptake inhibitor (484 nM)[5]
- μ-, and κ-opioid receptor agonist [8]
- α3β4, α4β2, and α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor antagonist.[9][10]
- Glycine receptor antagonist
- L-Type voltage-gated calcium channel (LVGCC) blocker.[4][11]
The pharmacology of dextrorphan is similar to that of dextromethorphan (DXM). However, dextrorphan is much more potent as an NMDA receptor antagonist as well as essentially inactive as a serotonin reuptake inhibitor, but retains DXMs activity as a norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor.[12] Dextrorphan has a notably longer half-life than its parent compound, and therefore has a tendency to accumulate in the blood after repeated administration of normally dosed dextromethorphan formulations.[citation needed]
Legality[edit]
Dextrorphan was formerly a Schedule I controlled substance in the United States, but was unscheduled on October 1, 1976.[13]
