Mesoridazine
(Redirected from Mesoridazine besylate)
Mesoridazine is an antipsychotic medication that is used in the treatment of schizophrenia. It is a member of the phenothiazine class of antipsychotics. Mesoridazine works by blocking the action of dopamine, a neurotransmitter in the brain that is believed to be involved in the development of schizophrenia.
Pharmacology[edit | edit source]
Mesoridazine is a dopamine antagonist, which means it works by blocking the action of dopamine in the brain. This helps to reduce the symptoms of schizophrenia, such as hallucinations, delusions, and disorganized thinking. Mesoridazine is also a serotonin antagonist, which means it can help to reduce the symptoms of anxiety and depression that are often associated with schizophrenia.
Side Effects[edit | edit source]
Like all antipsychotic medications, mesoridazine can cause side effects. These can include drowsiness, dizziness, dry mouth, constipation, and blurred vision. In rare cases, mesoridazine can cause serious side effects such as tardive dyskinesia (a movement disorder) and neuroleptic malignant syndrome (a potentially life-threatening reaction to antipsychotic medications).
Contraindications[edit | edit source]
Mesoridazine should not be used in people with a known allergy to mesoridazine or any other phenothiazine antipsychotic. It should also not be used in people with certain heart conditions, as it can cause changes in the heart's electrical activity that can lead to serious heart problems.
Interactions[edit | edit source]
Mesoridazine can interact with a number of other medications, including other antipsychotics, antidepressants, and certain heart medications. It is important for patients to tell their doctor about all the medications they are taking before starting mesoridazine.
