Chemical compound

Pharmaceutical compound

ORG-37684 is a drug developed by Organon, which acts as a potent and selective agonist for the 5-HT₂ receptor family, including of the serotonin 5-HT_2C, 5-HT_2B, and 5-HT_2A receptors, in that order of potency.^[1]^[2]^[3] It has anorectic effects in animal studies and has been researched as a potential weight loss drug for use in humans.^[4] ORG-37684 produces the head-twitch response, a behavioral proxy of psychedelic effects, and hence may be hallucinogenic in humans.^[1]
