Proxyfan is a histamine H₃ receptor ligand which is a "protean agonist", producing different effects ranging from full agonist, to antagonist, to inverse agonist in different tissues, depending on the level of constitutive activity of the histamine H₃ receptor. This gives it a complex activity profile in vivo which has proven useful for scientific research.^[1]^[2]^[3]^[4]^[5]^[6]^[7]
