Rilmenidine is an antihypertensive agent.1 It binds to imidazole receptors in bovine rostral ventrolateral medulla homogenates (Ki = 6.1 nM), as well as α2-adrenergic receptors in bovine prefrontal cortex homogenates (Ki = 87 nM). Rilmenidine induces hypotension and bradycardia in anesthetized rats (ED50s = 0.25 and 0.35 mg/kg, respectively). It also reduces mean arterial pressure and renal sympathetic nerve activity in a rabbit model of renal hypertension induced by a renal artery clip when administered at a dose of 2.5 mg/kg.2 Rilmenidine (1 ?M) increases levels of LC3-II, a marker of autophagy, in PC12 cells.3 Formulations containing rilmenidine have been used in the treatment of hypertension.
