Diclofensine (Ro 8-4650) is a stimulant drug which acts as a triple reuptake inhibitor,[1][2] primarily inhibiting the reuptake of dopamine[3] and noradrenaline.[4] It was found to be an effective antidepressant in human trials,[5][6][7] with relatively few side effects,[8] but was ultimately dropped from clinical development, possibly due to concerns about its abuse potential.[9][10]
