SKF-38393 is a synthetic compound of the benzazepine chemical class which acts as a selective D1/D5 receptor partial agonist.[1] It has stimulant and anorectic effects.[2][3]

The trimethylation of SKF-38,393 leads to a named agent called Trepipam.

As with fenoldopam the inclusion of a chlorine halogen gave an agent that is called SKF-81,297.
