DRUG

ibudilast

Ibudilast is a small molecule that crosses the blood-brain barrier after oral administration. Its potential as a neuroprotective agent is based on in vitro and in vivo evidence of its ability to reduce microglial activation, inhibit microglia-monocyte recruitment to the central nervous system (CNS), and trigger the release of neurotrophic factors.
