Description
CHLORPROMAZINE TAB 100MG (UK GENERIC) contains chlorpromazine, an antipsychotic medication primarily used to treat mental health conditions such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and severe behavioral problems. It may also be used to control nausea, vomiting, anxiety, and agitation.
Chlorpromazine belongs to the class of drugs known as typical antipsychotics or phenothiazines. It works by blocking dopamine receptors in the brain, which helps to reduce psychotic symptoms such as hallucinations and delusions.
The tablets are taken orally, with dosage varying based on the condition being treated and the patient’s response. It is typically started at a low dose and gradually increased by a healthcare provider.
Common side effects may include drowsiness, dry mouth, blurred vision, constipation, dizziness, and weight gain. More serious side effects can occur, such as movement disorders, low blood pressure, and increased sensitivity to sunlight.
Chlorpromazine is contraindicated in patients with certain heart conditions, liver impairment, or hypersensitivity to the drug. It may interact with other medications, so medical advice is necessary before use.
Treatment should follow a healthcare provider’s instructions, with regular monitoring for side effects and effectiveness.
