Ranirestat is a structurally novel and stereospecifically potent aldose reductase (AKR1B; EC 1.1.1.21) inhibitor, which contains a succinimide ring that undergoes ring-opening at physiological pH levels. It has been used in trials studying the treatment of Mild to Moderate Diabetic Sensorimotor Polyneuropathy.

Ranirestat alleviates diabetic neuropathy, a complication of diabetes, by inhibiting aldose reductase and thereby inhibiting the accumulation of intracellular sorbitol that causes diabetic neuropathy. This drug has a stronger inhibitory effect and is longer acting compared to other drugs in this therapeutic area. Ranirestat showed good penetration into the nerve tissue, resulting in dose-dependent inhibition of intraneural accumulation of sorbitol and fructose in a clinical study.
Investigated for use/treatment in neuropathy (diabetic).
