I've uploaded Image:Cytisine.png, but for some reason the chembox is not picking it up. Whoever takes an interest is invited to solve this - I can't seem to figure it out. JFW | T@lk  21:58, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

antithelemic use
Friend used it with success (was prescribed by doctor) as antithelemic against common pinworms (in Poland). just side note ofcourse, but i guess this use can be deduced from it's similarity in mechanism of action against pinworms to pyrantel, if anyone has more reliable sources to support/question such use it would be nice add i think ,esp. it was proven very effective substance. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.12.255.234 (talk) 17:59, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

Renaming article?
Only Achieve Life Sciences refers to the compound as "cytisinicline". Everywhere else in the literature, it is and always has been "cytisine". Especially because the product has not been brought to market, the renaming seems very inappropriate. Mleonard85032 (talk) 03:22, 27 June 2022 (UTC)


 * It seems likely to be an attempt by ALS themselves to promote attention to their product. This isn't the place for that. Mleonard85032 (talk) 03:24, 27 June 2022 (UTC)
