In-vivo cytogenetic effects of perphenazine and chlorpromazine: a negative study.
نویسندگان
چکیده
No evidence was found that either perphenazine or chlorpromazine induced chromosomal damage in patients given the drugs. These results were reached independently at two separate laboratories; earlier reports of possible adverse cytogenetic effects of these drugs can probably be discounted.

Chromosome abnormalities in patients treated with chlorpromazine, perphenazine, and lysergide.
In a chromosome study on leucocyte cultures made in 13 patients treated with chlorpromazine, 15 treated with perphenazine, and nine treated with lysergide, a significantly higher frequency of gaps, breaks, and hypodiploid cells in the patients treated with perphenazine and lysergide occurred compared with the 41 controls studied. It is concluded that if some drugs can induce major chromosome ab...

متن کاملOptic atrophy during chlorpromazine therapy.
Chlorpromazine hydrochloride, a synthetic phenothiazine, has been widely employed in psychiatric illnesses, and an extensive literature exists on its side-effects; many reports describe ocular changes, including an oculo-dermal melanosis with deposition of pigment in the retina (Feldman and Frierson, I964; Zelickson and Zeller, I964; Cairns, Capoore, and Gregory, I965; Brit. med. J., I967), dep...
متن کاملDifferential antagonism of antiavoidance, cataleptic and ptotic effects of neuroleptics by biperiden.
The interaction between neuroleptics and an anticholinergic, biperiden, in the antiavoidance, catalepsy and ptosis tests was investigated in mice for the purpose of predicting the extrapyramidal side-effects of neuroleptics. The cataleptic effect of most neuroleptics used was antagonized to some extent by biperiden, while the ptotic effect was hardly influenced. The antiavoidance effect of halo...
متن کاملInverse agonist activity of atypical antipsychotic drugs at human 5-hydroxytryptamine2C receptors.
Clozapine is the prototype atypical antipsychotic drug, producing little or no extrapyramidal side effects, while improving negative symptoms of psychosis. Clozapine's high affinity for serotonin receptors has been hypothesized to confer the unique antipsychotic properties of this drug. Recently, we demonstrated that both typical and atypical antipsychotic drugs are inverse agonists at constitu...
