Mostafa, Pharmaceutical and pharmacokinetic evaluation of a novel fast dissolving film formulation of
flupentixol dihydrochloride, AAPS PharmSciTech, 15, 6 (2014).
Up to 80 Mu injected at 9 months (mean dosage 72.8 Mu) Hennings et al (37) Patient, age 28, with (2008; case report) tardive dystonia caused by
flupentixol (20 mg IM every 2 weeks) and biperiden (regimen unknown) for 1 year.
Typical antipsychotics like haloperidol, thiothixene, and
flupentixol increase TST and Sleep Efficiency (SE) and reduce Sleep Latency (SL) and awakenings [5, 6].
In contrast, the risk of rehospitalization when patients were on oral
flupentixol or quetiapine was not significantly different from when they were off antipsychotics altogether.
As first generation antipsychotics, the following drugs were in eluded: chlorprothixene,
flupentixol, haloperidol, levomepromazine and as second generation: olanzapine, risperidone, quetiapine and ziprasidone.
In the local mental health hospital, she was prescribed with "lorazepam tablets and
flupentixol and melitracen tablets" which did not improve her condition.
(10) A review of studies of prescription patterns in China reported melitracen /
flupentixol combination, fluoxetine, and paroxetine to be the most commonly prescribed compounds.
Prescribed typical antipsychotics within the study period included chlorpromazine, clopenthixol, clothiapine, droperidol,
flupentixol, fluphenazine, haloperidol, levomepromazine, loxapine, methotrimeprazine, perphenazine, pipotiazine, sulpiride, thioridazine, thiothixene, and trifluoperazine.
