Neramexane is a drug related to memantine,^[1] which acts as an NMDA antagonist^[2] and has neuroprotective effects.^[3] It is being developed for various possible applications, including treatment of tinnitus,^[4]^[5] Alzheimer's disease,^[6] drug addiction^[7] and as an analgesic.^[8] Animal studies have also suggested antidepressant^[9] and nootropic^[10] actions, so there are a wide range of potential applications this drug may be used for. It also acts as a nicotinic acetylcholine receptor antagonist.^[11]
