Mode of Action

Prochlorperazine blocks both postsynaptic dopamine receptors as well as the medullary chemo receptor trigger zone. It depresses hypothalamic and hypophyseal hormone release and posssesses alpha-adrenergic and anticholinergic inhibitory activity.

Interaction

Additive anticholinergic effects with antihistamines, tricyclic antidepressants and drugs used in parkinsonism. May reduce the antihypertensive effect of guanethidine and other adrenergic neurone blockers. May also increase risk of arrhythmias when used with drugs that prolong QT interval. Potentially Fatal: Potentiation of other CNS depressants including alcohol, sedatives, hypnotics, barbiturates, opioids, antihistamines and general anaesthetics.
