Largactil And Bodybuilding A Question On Anti-psychotics?

Serenace - overview:
A phenyl-piperidinyl-butyrophenone that is used primarily on schizophrenia and other psychoses. It is also used in schizoaffective disorder, delusional disorders, tribalism and Gilles de la Tourette's syndrome (a drug of choice) and occasionally as adjunctive therapy in mental retardation and Huntington's disease. It is a potent antiemetic and is used in the treatment of intractable hiccups. (AMA Drug Evaluations Annual, 1994, P279)

Chlorpromazine is an aliphatic phenothiazine. Neuroleptics and phenothiazines are to its central antiemetic action through interference with dopaminergic paths in the areas of the mesolimbic and medullary chemoreceptor area of the brain, or to elicit. Extrapyramidal side effects are the result of interaction with dopaminergic orbits in the basal ganglia. Often described as inhibitors of dopamine, the exact mechanism of dopaminergic interference responsible for the activity of neuroleptics has not been determined.
The aliphatic phenothiazines are very reassuring, which often develops at the beginning of the therapy over time, a certain tolerance to this effect. Chlorpromazine has strong alpha-adrenergic activity and can trigger orthostatic hypotension. Rarely prolongation of the QT interval can occur. Chlorpromazine has moderate anticholinergic activity manifested as occasional dry mouth, blurred vision, urinary retention and constipation.
Chlorpromazine increases prolactin secretion by its action in blocking dopamine receptors in the pituitary and hypothalamus. Galactorrhea and gynecomastia occurred.
