Mefenidil (MCN 2378) is a selective cerebral vasodilator that is not affected by beta-adrenergic blockade. Mefenidil can be used in the study of cardiovascular disease. In monkey models, mefenidil preferentially increases cerebral blood flow over systemic (femoral) blood flow. Mefenidil is also able to reduce systemic arterial pressure in anesthetized dogs.
