Clovoxamine (INN) (developmental code name DU-23811) is a drug that was discovered in the 1970s and was subsequently investigated as an antidepressant and anxiolytic agent but was never marketed.[1][2][3] It acts as a serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SNRI), with little affinity for the muscarinic acetylcholine, histamine, adrenergic, and serotonin receptors.[4][5] The compound is structurally related to fluvoxamine.
