  <class>SmallMolecule</class>
  <description>Rufinamide is an organic compound with the formula C10H8F2N4O and an average molecular weight of 238.19 g/mol. Rufinamide belongs to the carboxylic acid derivatives, a subclass of carboxylic acids and derivatives within the organic compounds. 

This compound is found in or released from two recorded sources: household cleaning and consumer products, specifically non electric simulated smoking devices, and healthcare, pharmaceuticals and veterinary products, specifically antiepileptics. The recorded exposure route for this substance is oral. Regarding its biological activity, there are two recorded protein targets for rufinamide; it acts as an inhibitor or modulator of the sodium channel protein type 9 subunit alpha (SCN9A) and the metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (GRM5).</description>
