Eur J Med Chem. 2008 Nov;43(11):2535-40. Epub 2008 Jan 31.

1-Benzyl-N-(2,6-dimethylphenyl) piperidine-3-carboxamide and 4-benzyl-N-(2,6-dimethylphenyl) piperazine-2-carboxamide, two conformationally restricted analogues of tocainide, were designed and synthesized as voltage-gated skeletal muscle sodium channel blockers.

A new approach is represented by the piperazine derivatives trimetazidine (TMZ) and ranolazine (RNZ).
RNZ has been separately classified as a late sodium channel inhibitor, which reverses action potential prolongation, suppresses early after-depolarizations, and terminates resultant ventricular tachycardia.
