Esmirtazapine (ORG-50,081) is a drug which is under development by Organon for the treatment of insomnia and vasomotor symptoms (e.g., hot flashes) associated with menopause.[2][3][4][5] As of 2009 it is in phase III clinical trials.[2] Esmirtazapine is the (S)-(+)-enantiomer of mirtazapine and possesses similar overall pharmacology, including inverse agonist actions at H1 and 5-HT2 receptors and antagonist actions at α2-adrenergic receptors.[2][6]
