Synthesis and biological evaluation of the major metabolite of atomoxetine: elucidation of a partial kappa-opioid agonist effect.Creighton CJ, Ramabadran K, Ciccone PE, Liu J, Orsini MJ, Reitz AB.

The major human metabolite of atomoxetine (4-hydroxyatomoxetine) was tested against a panel of receptors and enzymes, and was found to interact with the mu, delta, and kappa-opioid receptors based upon studies involving both binding and functional assays. 4-hydroxyatomoxetine was determined to be a partial agonist of the kappa-opioid receptor.>>
