We determined the experimental solubility of CNS marketed drugs. Of the 98 drugs measured, greater than 90% had solubility > 10 mu M in pH 7.4 buffer. Only seven drugs had solubility < 10 mu M. Using these data, we established a solubility criterion to support CNS discovery. The implication of poor solubility with potential safety concerns and undesirable side effects are discussed.
