Butopamine (INNTooltip International Nonproprietary Name, USANTooltip United States Adopted Name; developmental code name LY-131126; also known as (R,R)-ractopamine) is a sympathomimetic agent, β-adrenergic receptor agonist, and positive inotrope of the phenethylamine family which was studied for treatment of heart failure but was never marketed.[1][2][3][4] It is an analogue of dobutamine[3][4] and is the (R,R)-enantiomer of ractopamine.[2] Butopamine is not a catecholamine and is resistant to metabolism by catechol O-methyltransferase (COMT).[3] In contrast to dobutamine, butopamine is orally active.[3] In addition to its positive inotropic effects, butopamine has positive chronotropic effects.[3]
