Synergist (non-specific).

Definition

ChEBI: 2,2-diphenylpentanoic acid 2-(diethylamino)ethyl ester is a diarylmethane.

Enzyme inhibitor

This nonselective P450 inhibitor (FWfree-base = 353.50 g/mol; CAS 302-33-0; 62-68-0 for the HCl salt), also known as SKF-525A, b-diethylaminoethyl 2,2-diphenylpropylacetate, and N,N-diethylaminoethyl 2,2- diphenylvalerate, blocks glibenclamide-sensitive K+ channels, including ATP-sensitive inward rectifier potassium channel 8 (KIR6.1). As a nonselective inhibitor of cytochrome P450 systems, proadifen also inhibits drug metabolism, thereby potentiating the action of many pharmaceuticals. For example, proadifen inhibits the demethylation of 2-methoxyestrogens .
