Rufinamide-d₂  (Synonyms: CGP 33101-d₂; E 2080-d2; RUF 331-d₂)

Rufinamide-d₂ (CGP 33101-d₂) is the deuterium labeled Rufinamide. Rufinamide (E 2080) is a new antiepileptic agent that differs structurally from other antiepileptic drugs and is approved as adjunctive therapy for Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (LGS).

Stable heavy isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, and other elements have been incorporated into drug molecules, largely as tracers for quantitation during the drug development process. Deuteration has gained attention because of its potential to affect the pharmacokinetic and metabolic profiles of drugs^[1].
