Sign in to saveAlso known as Ro-154513
Ro15-4513 is a weak partial inverse agonist of the benzodiazepine class of drugs, developed by Hoffmann–La Roche in the 1980s. It acts as an inverse agonist (which acts in a similar way as a competitive antagonist). The drug has been explored as possible antidote to the sedative and cognitively impairing effects of ethanol.

Ro15-4513 is a weak partial inverse agonist of the benzodiazepine class of drugs, developed by Hoffmann–La Roche in the 1980s. It acts as an inverse agonist (which acts in a similar way as a competitive antagonist). The drug has been explored as possible antidote to the sedative and cognitively impairing effects of ethanol.
Ro15-4513 is structurally related to the benzodiazepine antidote flumazenil.
