Overview
Deanol is a chemical used to make choline. Choline is involved in reactions that form acetylcholine, a chemical in the brain and other areas of the body.
Having more choline in the body might increase the production of acetylcholine, which is involved in brain and nervous system function. This might have effects on some neurological conditions.
People use deanol for Alzheimer disease, a movement disorder called tardive dyskinesia, attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), autism, and many other conditions, but there is no good scientific evidence to support these uses.
Deanol was previously sold by Riker Laboratories as the prescription drug Deaner. It was prescribed for the management of children with behavior problems and learning difficulties. Deanol is not an approved food additive in the US, nor is it an orphan drug, as some marketing suggests.
