Amiphenazole（Cat No.:I022046）is a drug with central nervous system effects, primarily used as a respiratory stimulant. It works by enhancing respiratory drive, making it useful in managing conditions where respiratory depression is a concern, such as during anesthesia recovery or in cases of drug-induced respiratory suppression. Amiphenazole is thought to act on the brainstem to stimulate the respiratory centers, improving oxygen intake and carbon dioxide expulsion. However, due to its potential side effects, including tachycardia and nervousness, it is typically used in controlled medical settings where respiratory support is needed.
