MSH: The prototypical phenothiazine antipsychotic drug. Like the other drugs in this class chlorpromazine's antipsychotic actions are thought to be due to long-term adaptation by the brain to blocking DOPAMINE RECEPTORS. Chlorpromazine has several other actions and therapeutic uses, including as an antiemetic and in the treatment of intractable hiccup.,CSP: prototypical phenothiazine antipsychotic drug; antipsychotic actions are thought to be due to long-term adaptation by the brain to blocking dopamine receptors; chlorpromazine has several other actions and therapeutic uses, including as an antiemetic and in the treatment of intractable hiccup.,PDQ: A phenothiazine and traditional antipsychotic agent with anti-emetic activity.
