SKF-38393 is a synthetic compound of the 3-benzazepine family which acts as a selective dopamine D1 and D5 receptor partial agonist. It has stimulant and anorectic effects.

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.
