As you all know it's almost impossible to get gluethethimide, however it's still possible to get aminoglutethimide!

The Wikipedia section on aminoglutethimide is pretty extensive however the one part I would like to highlight is the following:

"The central nervous system side effects of AG are due to its nature as an anticonvulsant and relation to glutethimide."

Has anybody got any information on aminoglutethimide?
What does everybody think of it's safety profile?
Is this something that may be worth it or what are your thoughts on it?

I understand it isn't the same as Doriden but then again, it's the most similar substance that we have to Gluetethimide (Doriden).
All constructive input is welcome!
 
Aminoglutethimide doesn't have the reinforcing properties or desirable enzymatic effects of glutethimide and its endocrinological effects make it doubly unattractive (unless you are transgender and are transitioning from female to male; though even then you wouldnt want to mess with aminoglutethimide).
 
On second thought I'm going to move this to advanced drug discussion.
