List of NaSSAs
The NaSSAs include the following agents:
- Aptazapine (CGS-7525A)
- Esmirtazapine (ORG-50,081)
- Mianserin (Bolvidon, Norval, Tolvon)
- Mirtazapine (Remeron, Avanza, Zispin)
- Setiptiline (Tecipul)
Notably, all of these compounds are analogues and are also classified as tetracyclic antidepressants (TeCAs) based on their chemical structures.
Recently, S32212, a structurally novel NaSSA with an improved selectivity profile (e.g., no antihistamine effects, etc.), has been developed. It has completed preliminary preclinical research and may go on to undergo clinical trials.

“Shea—they call him Scholar Jack—
Went down the list of the dead.
Officers, seamen, gunners, marines,
The crews of the gig and yawl,
The bearded man and the lad in his teens,
Carpenters, coal-passers—all.”
—Joseph I. C. Clarke (1846–1925)
“Weigh what loss your honor may sustain
If with too credent ear you list his songs,
Or lose your heart, or your chaste treasure open
To his unmastered importunity.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
