4-Fluoroselegiline or p-fluoro-L-deprenyl is a substituted amphetamine designer drug. Much like its parent compount, selegiline, it is a selective and irreversible inhibitor of monoamine oxidase B.[1]

Pharmacology[edit]

Pharmacodynamics[edit]

4-Fluoroselegiline has a similar pharmacological profile to its parent compound, selegiline.[2]

A radiolabelled derivative incorporating 18F is used to study MAO-B inhibition in both in vivo and in vitro experiments.[3]

Pharmacokinetics[edit]

p-Fluoro-L-deprenyl is metabolized to p-fluoro-L-methamphetamine and p-fluoro-L-amphetamine, both of which are active. The levels of substituted amphetamine metabolites in the brain is three times higher following 4-fluoroselegiline administration compared to an equivalent dose of selegiline.[2]
