Ajmalicine (Raubasine) hydrochloride is a potent adrenolytic agent which preferentially blocks α1-adrenoceptor. Ajmalicine hydrochloride is an reversible but non-competitive nicotine receptor full inhibitor, with an IC50 of 72.3 μM. Ajmalicine hydrochloride also can be used as anti-hypertensive, and serpentine, with sedative activity[1][2].

In Vitro	Ajmalicine hydrochloride preferentially blocks α1-adrenoceptor than α2-adrenoceptor[1]. Ajmalicine hydrochloride inhibits contractions in a concentration-dependent manner (IC50=72.3 ± 22.5 μM)[2]. Ajmalicine hydrochloride acts preferentially at postsynaptic sites, competitively antagonizes the effect of noradrenaline on postsynaptic alpha-adrenoceptor with a pA2 value of 6.57, blocks the inhibitory effect of clonidine with an pA2 value of 6.2[3].
In Vivo	Ajmalicine hydrochloride blocking the pressor action of electrical stimulation and is active against sympathetic stimulation[1]. Ajmalicine hydrochloride (0.5-4 mg/kg) induces a marked dose-dependent inhibition against the pressor response to noradrenaline[1]. Animal Model: Male Wistar rats (300-350 g)[1] Dosage: 0.5, 1, 2, and 4 mg/kg Administration: IV, once Result: Induced a marked dose-dependent inhibition against the pressor response to noradrenaline.
