| Chemical Structure | Rimonabant HCl has the molecular formula C₂₂H₂₂Cl₄N₄O. Its IUPAC name is 5-(4-chlorophenyl)-1-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-4-methyl-N-piperidin-1-ylpyrazole-3-carboxamide hydrochloride. |
| Mechanism of Action | Rimonabant is a potent and selective CB₁ cannabinoid receptor antagonist. It blocks the CB₁ receptor, which is involved in regulating appetite and other behaviors. At higher concentrations, it also inhibits Gαi/o-type G proteins, resulting in a receptor-independent block of G protein signaling. |
| Clinical Uses | It was developed as an anti-obesity drug to be used in conjunction with diet and exercise for patients with a BMI greater than 30 kg/m² or those with a BMI greater than 27 kg/m² with associated risk factors such as type 2 diabetes or dyslipidemia. |
| Storage Conditions | Store at 2–8°C. |
| Pharmacokinetics | Rimonabant has a long biological half-life of 6–9 days in individuals with normal BMI and up to 16 days in those with a BMI greater than 30. It is metabolized in the liver, primarily via the CYP3A4 enzyme. |
| Side Effects | Common side effects include depression, anxiety, nausea, and dizziness. These adverse effects led to its withdrawal from the market in some countries. |
| Regulatory Status | Although it showed promise in clinical trials for weight loss and metabolic improvements, its use was restricted due to significant psychiatric side effects. |
