Tegaserod
Tegaserod is a selective partial agonist of serotonin 5-HT4 receptors in the gastrointestinal tract that stimulates peristaltic reflexes, intestinal secretion, and reduces visceral sensitivity, originally used for irritable bowel syndrome with constipation and chronic idiopathic constipation. It was withdrawn from the US market due to cardiovascular risks but has been reapproved at lower doses for IBS-C in women under 65 without cardiovascular disease. Research has also explored its potential neuroprotective effects in Alzheimer's disease through serotonergic pathways.
