ORG-24598 is a selective inhibitor of the type 1 glycine transporter.[1]

Potential uses

Alcohol use disorder

A test in rats has showed that combining varenicline, bupropion, and an indirect glycine agonist (such as ORG-24598) could be beneficial for treatment of alcohol use disorder.[2]

Schizophrenia

Studies have shown that glycine re-uptake inhibitors selective for the type 1 transporter may be useful for the treatment of certain schizophrenia symptoms.[3][4]
