LR-5182
A drug was made, a wondrous sight.
LR-5182, its name so long,
A stimulant drug, oh so strong.
It blocked their reuptake, it knew what to do.
Developed by Lilly, in the seventies past,
For depression, they hoped it would last.
LR-5182, behind closed doors.
Two isomers it had, both active and true,
One blocked serotonin, the other just a few.
Stimulant wonders, a pleasant surprise.
Antidepressants and substitutes, they came to be,
To help those in need, to set them free.
LR-5182, a scientific tug.
In the world of medicine, it played its part,
A tale of discovery, a work of art.
