Mefenorex (marketed as Rondimen, Pondinil, Anexate) is an amphetamine derivative with a relatively mild psychostimulant profile. Developed in the 1960s, it was used throughout the 1970s as an appetite suppressant for treating obesity.[1][2] Mefenorex is a prodrug of amphetamine; upon ingestion, the compound will begin to metabolize into, as well as promote the production of, the active metabolites levoamphetamine and dextroamphetamine.[3] Multiple sources have noted the substance as exerting "mild stimulant effects....[and having] relatively little abuse potential."[4]
