Application

The interaction of Trifluperidol hydrochloride with NMDA receptors was studied in rat brain buffy coat membranes.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Trifluperidol is a dopamine receptor antagonist with antipsychotic effects used in the treatment of schizophrenia. This neuroleptic penetrates the brain and also affects the glial cells leading to increased release of proinflammatory cytokines. It also alters the metabolism of carbohydrates and amino acids in the brain cortex.

Clozapine is the prototype atypical antipsychotic drug, producing little or no extrapyramidal side effects, while improving negative symptoms of psychosis. Clozapine's high affinity for serotonin receptors has been hypothesized to confer the unique antipsychotic properties of this drug. Recently, we

Guidelines suggest limited and cautious use of antipsychotics for treatment of delirium where nonpharmacological interventions have failed and symptoms remain distressing or dangerous, or both. It is unclear how well these recommendations are supported by current evidence. Our primary objective
