Chlorpromazine was synthesized in December 1951 in the laboratories of Rhône-Poiulenc, and became available on prescription in France in November 1952. Its effectiveness was reflected in the transformation of disturbed wards; its commercial success stimulated the development of other psychotropic drugs. Recognition of chemical mediation at the site of the synapse, followed by the introduction o...

conclusions this study showed that, compared to simply increasing the dose of morphine, adding chloropromazine, promethazine, midazolam, and clinidine to morphine significantly controlled pain scores and increased treatment satisfaction in addicted patients without notable side effects. objectives the objective of this study was to evaluate the analgesic effects of adding clonidine, promethazin...

The introduction of chlorpromazine in Belgium and the Netherlands demonstrates an intriguing tango between old and new treatments. Chlorpromazine, marketed by the French company Rhône Poulenc entered psychiatry as an adjunct to existing therapies. Instead of promoting chlorpromazine as a revolutionary therapy, we see early efforts to market Largactil as a supplement to the armoury of psychiatri...

Diazepam and chlorpromazine - psychotropic agents widely used for the amelioration of anxiety, depression, and psychosis, have been found to affect cell proliferation. We have checked whether these drugs influence proliferation of endothelial cells and probably angiogenesis process. We have studied the effect of diazepam and chlorpromazine on proliferative activity and vascular endothelial grow...

This study was performed to evaluate the ability of chlorpromazine compound cure plasmids and remove antibiotic resistance character multidrug Gram-negative pathogenic bacteria. The curing experiment done by incubating bacterial strains in nutrient broth with sub MIC concentration chlorpromazine, disc diffusion method used before after pattern Synergetic test antibiotics that studied bacteria s...

Major use Chlorpromazine hydrochloride (CPH) belongs to antipsychotic drugs, also called neuroleptics; and it is mainly used for the treatment of neurological disorders. CPH has sedative, hypotensive and antiemetic properties. CPH, which is an aliphatic phenothiazine, was first synthesized in 1952. It was extensively studied and used as a model for a big class of neuroleptic agents. Haloperidol...

The issue of antipsychotics in psychiatry constituted a revolution at the time. The firsts, starting with chlorpromazine represent the conventional antipsychotics, in the last decades there was a new generation of antipsychotics, atypical, which improved the results in treating psychoses. Because, as any drug, it may have adverse effects we aimed an experimental study on rats to observe the tox...

In the previous paper (Dawkins, Judah & Rees, 1959) it was shown that 10-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-2-chlorophenothiazine (chlorpromazine) was an inhibitor of cytochrome oxidase and also exhibited some action against oxidative phosphorylation. During the course of this investigation, it became apparent that chlorpromazine also had a second point of action in the respiratory chain. This paper descr...
