Alexander and Nino6 reported that abnormal changes in ECG induced by CPZ administration are associated with abnormal morphological changes in mitochondria, and we have reported that CPZ induces mitochondrial dysfunction
Abstract In this study, we investigated the mechanism of the arrhythmogenic action of chlorpromazine (CPZ)
Others may cause life-threatening symptoms
We sought all relevant randomised controlled trials (RCT) comparing chlorpromazine to Low/mid potency phenothiazines such as chlorpromazine antipsychotic drugs that have been used to treat schizophrenia and schizophrenia-like disorders since the 1950s and are utilized in numerous disease states
The most common psychological and behavioral reactions are distress reactions which often include anxiety, insomnia, frustration, sense of insecurity, anger, increased use or avoidance of health services for fear of illness and indulging in risky maladaptive behaviors (for We study 1,114 people who have side effects when taking Chlorpromazine hydrochloride
It can also lead to the formation of blood clots and stroke, as well as heart failure, and other cardiac complications
Indeed, the clinical scenario outlined of a patient with sepsis who develops rapid atrial fibrillation describes a situation that anaesthetists and intensivists frequently encounter
The study objective was to evaluate the appropriateness of Chlorpromazine is used to treat the symptoms of schizophrenia (a mental illness that causes disturbed or unusual thinking, loss of interest in life, and strong or inappropriate emotions) and other psychotic disorders (conditions that cause difficulty telling the difference between things or ideas that are real and things or ideas that are not real) and to treat the symptoms of mania (frenzied Olanzapine has been associated most frequently with weight gain, increased appetite, and somnolence

Arrhythmias can start in different parts of your heart and they can be too fast, too slow or just irregular
2 Chlorpromazine treatment, in particular, has been reported to cause photo contact urticaria
Chlorpromazine can cause orthostatic hypotension, although this is generally not an issue with serotonin syndrome, in which hypertension is common
Patients taking chlorpromazine and haloperidol are at risk of experiencing a wide range of ADRs with varying degrees of severity
There is an increased risk for the development of torsades Chlorpromazine
Atrial fibrillation is the most common sustained arrhythmia, increases with age, and presents with a wide spectrum of symptoms and severity
Atrial fibrillation is the most commonly identified arrhythmia in patients with thyrotoxicosis, with a prevalence rate of 13

Arrhythmias such as sinus bradycardia, first-degree heart block, junctional rhythm, sinus tachycardia and premature ventricular contractions are common and
Chlorpromazine, thioridazine, mesoridazine, risperidone, zisapridone, haloperidol, droperidol, sertindole, quetiapine and pimozide are some of the agents associated with prolongation of the QT interval
Chlorpromazine could be considered as an alternative to promethazine, especially if intravenous administration is required

The following are key points to remember from this American Heart Association Scientific Statement on drug-induced arrhythmias: Bradycardia: Sinus node automaticity is suppressed by drugs that inhibit sympathetic nervous system activity (beta-blockers) or stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system (neostigmine
Hypokalemia always potentiates the pro-arrhythmic effects of The different clinical presentations of cardiac arrhythmias reflect either reduced blood pressure or cardiac output, or both, as a direct result of the rhythm abnormality
Thioridazine’s risk is a function of large daily doses (>800 mg/day), while the risk associated with chlorpromazine is related to daily dose and duration of use
