Dose-response curves for the elevation of homovanillic acid (HVA) levels, determined by high performance liquid chromatography using electrochemical detection, in the pre-frontal cortex and caudate of rats after acute treatment with 12 antipsychotic drugs are presented. The order of potency in both brain regions was: haloperidol greater than or equal to fluphenazine greater than loxapine greater than trifluoperazine greater than thiothixene greater than molindone greater than clopenthixol greater than chlorpromazine greater than metoclopramide greater than thioridazine greater than clozapine greater than sulpiride. This ranking is roughly correlated with that based on clinical potencies. The relative elevation of the content of HVA was weaker in the pre-frontal cortex than in the caudate for all drugs tested, except clozapine at a high dose.
