| Description | Fluphenazine dimaleate is a potent, orally active phenothiazine-based dopamine receptor antagonist. Fluphenazine dimaleate blocks neuronal voltage-gated sodium channels. Fluphenazine dimaleate acts primarily through antagonism of postsynaptic dopamine-2 receptors in mesolimbic, nigrostriatal, and tuberoinfundibular neural pathways. Fluphenazine dimaleate can antagonize Methylphenidate-induced stereotyped gnawing and inhibit climbing behaviour in mice. Fluphenazine dimaleate can be used for researching psychosis and painful peripheral neuropathy associated with diabetes and has potential to inhibit SARS-CoV-2[1][2][3][4][6]. |

| In Vivo | Fluphenazine (1 mg/kg; IG, treated from day 6 to day 15 of gestation) causes malformations in pregnant mice[5]. Fluphenazine (0.125-1 mg/kg; IP, single dosage) antagonizes Methylphenidate-induced stereotyped gnawing; inhibits significantly climbing behaviour[6]. Animal Model: Mature female Swiss-Webster mice[5] Dosage: 1 mg/kg Administration: IG, treated from day 6 to day 15 of gestation Result: Significantly reduced fetal weight and length, increased the incidence of incomplete ossification of sternebrae and skull bones. Animal Model: Mice (injected with 60 mg/kg Methylphenidate)[6] Dosage: 0.125, 0.25, 0.5, and 1 mg/kg Administration: IP, single dosage Result: Antagonized Methylphenidate-induced stereotyped gnawing; inhibited significantly climbing behaviour in mice at 0.0625-0.5 mg/kg, and at the dose of 1 mg/kg abolished this effect completely. |
