Fasoracetam (NS-105, 5-oxo-D-prolinepiperidinamide monohydrate)[1] is a research chemical of the racetam family.[2] It is a nootropic, and has been in a clinical trial for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.[3]

In in vitro studies on mouse neurons, fasoracetam modulated mGluR II/III activity.[4] In studies in rats, it blocked memory disruptions caused by baclofen, a GABAB agonist[5] and upregulated production of GABAB receptors after repeat dosing.[6]
