Fenharmane (INNTooltip International Nonproprietary Name), also known as 1-benzyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronorharmane, is a sedative and tranquilizer of the β-carboline family.[1][2] It has been said to have actions similar to those of reserpine, a monoamine-depleting agent.[3][4][5][6] The drug has been reported to induce symptoms of depression analogously to reserpine.[7][8] Fenharmane was developed in Czechoslovakia in the late 1950s.[3][2][9]
