Application

Pipamperone dihydrochloride may be used:
  • as an internal standard in liquid chromatography with coulometric detection
  • as an antipsychotic drugs to test its interaction with human ether-a-go-go-related gene (hERG) channel
  • as an internal standard to spike human colostrum samples for reversed phase liquid chromatography- ultraviolet (LC-UV) analysis

Biochem/physiol Actions

D2 dopamine receptor antagonist; 5-HT2 serotonin receptor antagonist; antipsychotic.
Pipamperone, a butyrophenone derivative is a pharmacological chaperone and is a membrane-permeable dopamine receptor D4 (DRD4) antagonist. The affinity of pipamperone is higher for DRD4 and 5-hydroxytryptamine 2A receptor (5-HT2A) in comparison with DRD2. It may be useful therapeutic in treating behavioral disorders and psychomotor agitation symptoms.
