Binedaline (Ixprim), also called binodaline, is a drug that was being investigated as an antidepressant in the 1980s but never marketed.[1][2] It acts as a selective norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (Ki = 25 nM), with relatively insignificant influence on the serotonin (Ki = 847 nM) and dopamine (Ki >= 2 µM) transporters.[3] It has negligible affinity for the α-adrenergic, mACh, H1, or 5-HT2 receptors.[3]
