Descriptions

Serentil® (mesoridazine besylate) is a neuroleptic drug that is used in the treatment of schizophrenia, organic brain disorders, psychoneuroses, and alcoholism. It is the besylate salt of a metabolite of thioridazine. It exerts its actions through a central adrenergic-blocking, a dopamine -blocking, a serotonin -blocking, and a weak anticholinergic action. It also exerts part of its actions through depression of hypothalamic centers, like other phenothiazines. Copyright Text is available under the Creative Commons Attribution/Share-Alike License.

Mesoridazine (Serentil) is a piperidine neuroleptic drug belonging to the class of drugs called phenothiazines, used in the treatment of schizophrenia. It is a metabolite of thioridazine. The drug's name is derived from the methylsulfoxy and piperidine functional groups in its chemical structure. It has central antiadrenergic, antidopaminergic, antiserotonergic and weak muscarinic anticholinergic effects. Serious side effects include akathisia, tardive dyskinesia and the potentially fatal neuroleptic malignant syndrome. Mesoridazine was withdrawn from the United States market in 2004 due to dangerous side effects, namely irregular heart beat and QT-prolongation of the electrocardiogram. It currently appears to be unavailable worldwide.[Wikipedia] Copyright Text is available under the Creative Commons Attribution/Share-Alike License.
