Description
CAS: 65-19-0
Latin Name: Corynante Yohimbe
Molecular Formula: C21H26N2O3
Molecular Weight: 390.9
Appearance:Red brown powder
Norepinephrine Effects: Yohimbine acts centrally to increase sympathetic outflow, and peripherally to increase the release of norepinephrine from adrenergic nerve terminals. This increases the plasma norepinephrine, and elicits pressor effects
Hormonal Effects: Yohimbine was demonstrated to produce an increase in plasma prolactin levels in rats.21 This study suggested that the increased prolactin levels were not caused by anti-dopaminergic effects, and possibly occurred through a mechanism related to prolactin-releasing factor. Yohimbine has been reported to possess mild anti-diuretic effects, possibly due to stimulation of hypothalamic centers and release of pituitary hormones.
Product description:Yohimbe is used to arouse sexual excitement, for erectile dysfunction (ED), sexual problems caused by medications for depression called selective-serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), and general sexual problems in both men and women.
