Prestwick Chemical Library®: 1520 drugs mainly FDA-approved

Prestwick Chemical Library®:
1520 FDA-approved & EMA-approved drugs for HTS and HCS screening

 

A team of in-house medicinal chemists and pharmacists has committed to selecting highly relevant screening compounds for >20 years, in order to offer a screening collection of off-patent drugs with high chemical and pharmacological diversity, as well as known bioavailability and safety in humans.

 

 

A diversified marketed drugs library targeting +600 targets designed for repurposing/repositioning

 

    • A unique collection of 1520 small molecules, 98% marketed approved drugs (FDA-approved, EMA and JAN approved, and other agencies)
    • High chemical diversity, assessed medicinal activity
    • High pharmacological diversity (according WHO ATC Classification 5, see below)
    • More than 600 targets addressed (see graph below)
    • Specially designed to increase potential high-quality hits
    • Hit-likeness and hit-workability have been reported over the past 22 years by users in 400+ publications 
    • Constant in-house quality control ensures high purity and stable compounds
    • Including a database with Newly identified targets and New Application data (according to publications)
    • Possibility of analoging around hits
