The tables below contain a sample list of benzodiazepines and benzodiazepine analogs that are commonly prescribed, with their basic pharmacological characteristics, such as half-life and equivalent doses to other benzodiazepines, also listed, along with their trade names and primary uses.
Minoxidil, 6-amino-1,2-dihydro-1-hydroxy-2-imino-4-piperidinopyrimidine, is synthesized from barbituric acid, the reaction of which with phosphorus oxychloride gives 2,4,6-trichloropyrimidine. Upon reaction with ammonium, this turns into 2,4-diamino-6-chloropyrimidine.

In comparison studies, mCPP has approximately 10-fold selectivity for the human 5-HT 2C receptor over the human 5-HT 2A and 5-HT 2B receptors (K i = 3.4 nM vs. 32.1 and 28.8 nM). [11] It acts as a partial agonist of the human 5-HT 2A [ 47 ] and 5-HT 2C [ 48 ] receptors but as an antagonist of the human 5-HT 2B receptors.

Acute use (1–3 days) yields a potency about 1.5× stronger than that of morphine and chronic use (7 days+) yields a potency about 2.5 to 5× that of morphine. Similarly, the effect of tramadol increases after consecutive dosing due to the accumulation of its active metabolite and an increase of the oral bioavailability in chronic use.
