PRODUCT INTRODUCTION
description
Papaverine is a benzylisoquinoline alkaloid that is isoquinoline substituted by methoxy groups at positions 6 and 7 and a 3,4-dimethoxybenzyl group at position 1. It has been isolated from Papaver somniferum. It has a role as a vasodilator agent and an antispasmodic drug. It is a benzylisoquinoline alkaloid, a member of isoquinolines and a dimethoxybenzene.
