Armesocarb (developmental code name MLR-1019), also known as (R)-mesocarb or L-mesocarb, is a selective atypical dopamine reuptake inhibitor (DRI). It is currently under development for the treatment of Parkinson's disease and sleep disorders.[1][2]

It is the active (R)-enantiomer of the formerly clinically used stimulant-like drug mesocarb (MLR-1017; brand name Sydnocarb).[1][2][3]
