Doxepin, a tricyclic antidepressant, is a potent histamine H1 antagonist [1]. The histamine receptors belong to a family of G protein–coupled receptors activated by their primary endogenous ligand histamine. The H1 receptor has been expressed in smooth muscles, vascular endothelial cells, heart, and the central nervous system [2].
In vitro: Doxepin was a moderately potent competitive inhibitor of serotonin uptake in human blood platelets in vitro, with an inhibitory constant Ki of ~0.2 μM. Doxepin (100 μM) rapidly increased the efflux of serotonin from platelets [1].
In vivo: In rats and dog, oral administration of doxepin was well absorbed and quickly appeared in the blood. Numerous metabolites of doxepin were observed in liver and in urine, only doxepin and demethyl doxepin were found in the rat brain[3]..
Clinical trials: Doxepin has been marketed under many brand names worldwide. The oral topical formulations of doxepin are FDA-approved for the treatment of patients with major depressive disorder, primary insomnia, chronic urticaria, and anxiety [4,5,6].

Working concentration: mg/ml;
Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )
Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL saline, mix and clarify.
Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.
Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.
