Amthamine dihydrobromide
Chemical Name: 2-Amino-5-(2-aminoethyl)-4-methylthiazole dihydrobromide
Purity: ≥99%
Biological Activity
Amthamine dihydrobromide is a highly selective H2 agonist, slightly more potent than histamine itself. Only a weak antagonist at H3 and has no activity at H1 receptors. Induces vasodilation of cerebral arteries and decreases myogenic tone in vitro.Technical Data
