Antipsychotics. Chlorpromazine. ATX code N05A A01.

Pharmacodynamics

Antipsychotic, neuroleptic, sedative, muscle relaxant, antiemetic. Shows a blocking effect on dopaminergic and adrenergic receptors. The main feature of the drug is the combination of antipsychotic action with the ability to influence the emotional sphere.

The mechanism of antipsychotic action is due to the blocking of postsynaptic dopamine receptors in the mesolimbic structures of the brain. As a result, delusions and hallucinations are weakened or completely eliminated, psychomotor agitation is stopped, affective reactions, anxiety, anxiety are reduced, motor activity is reduced. Due to the blockade of dopamine receptors, the secretion of prolactin by the pituitary gland increases.

By blocking α-adrenergic receptors, chlorpromazine exhibits a pronounced sedative effect. The presence of a strong sedative effect is one of the main features of chlorpromazine in comparison with other antipsychotics.

The general calming effect is combined with the inhibition of conditioned reflex activity and, above all, motor-defensive reflexes, a decrease in spontaneous motor activity, relaxation of skeletal muscles, and a decrease in reactivity to endogenous and exogenous stimuli while maintaining consciousness.

Shows a pronounced central and peripheral antiemetic effect; the central effect is due to the inhibition or blockade of dopamine D2 receptors in the chemoreceptor trigger zone of the cerebellum, the peripheral effect is due to blockade of the vagus nerve in the gastrointestinal tract. The antiemetic effect is enhanced by the anticholinergic, sedative and antihistamine properties of chlorpromazine.

The anticholinergic effect is due to the competitive blockade of M-cholinergic receptors; anxiolytic, sedative and analgesic – weakening of excitation in the reticular formation of the brain stem.

Moderately reduces the severity of the inflammatory reaction, reduces vascular permeability, reduces the activity of kinins and hyaluronidase, and exhibits a weak antihistamine effect. Reduces systolic and diastolic blood pressure, causes tachycardia. It has pronounced cataleptogenic properties. Suppresses the release of hormones of the hypothalamus and pituitary gland (however, it increases the secretion of prolactin). Shows weak or moderate extrapyramidal action. Shows hypothermic action.

Potentiates the action of analgesics, local anesthetics, hypnotics and anticonvulsants.

Directions

Assign inside after meals. Doses, frequency of administration and treatment regimens are set by the doctor individually, depending on the indications and the patient’s condition. Doses should be selected by increasing, starting with the minimum. Duration of treatment – from 3 weeks to 2-4 months or more.

For adults, the initial dose is 25-75 mg per day, divided into 2-3 doses. The dose can then be gradually increased to an effective maintenance daily dose, which is usually 75-300 mg divided into 3-4 doses, but some patients may require a dose of 1 g.

In elderly patients, with diseases of the liver and cardiovascular system, the dose should be reduced by 2-3 times.

Protracted hiccups. Adults appoint 25-50 mg 3-4 times a day.

For children from 5 years of age, prescribe ⅓ – ½ of an adult dose; the maximum daily dose is 75 mg, divided into several doses.
