Fipexide is a piperazine derivative drug invented in Italy in 1983.[1]
It was used as a nootropic drug in France and Italy, mainly for the treatment of senile dementia,[2] but is no longer in common use due to the occurrence of rare adverse drug reactions including fever[3] and hepatitis. Fipexide is similar in action to other nootropic drugs such as piracetam and is structurally similar to another more well-known nootropic, centrophenoxine.
