Remoxipride is a substituted benzamide. It is a weak, but relatively selective, central dopamine D2-receptor antagonist and appears to have preferential affinity for extrastriatal dopamine D2-receptors. It also has marked affinity for central sigma receptors. It was introduced by Astra (Roxiam) at the end of the eighties and was prescribed as an atypical antipsychotic. Remoxipride was withdrawn from the market worldwide by Astra because of several cases of aplastic anaemia associated with the drug.

Sample Use Guides

In Vivo Use Guide

Two hundred and forty-two patients with acute schizophrenia were enrolled in a double-blind, comparative, dose-finding study of a novel antipsychotic, remoxipride. Remoxipride was evaluated in a low (30 to 90 mg), medium (120 to 240 mg) and a high (300 to 600 mg) dose range and compared with a haloperidol (15 to 45 mg), which was administered to a similar group of patients. The results support the antipsychotic effect of remoxipride, with maximum efficacy occurring at daily doses between 120 mg and 600 mg. A controlled release (CR) formulation of remoxipride (Roxiam(®), Astra) given once-daily was compared to immediate release (IR) remoxipride given twice-daily, with respect to efficacy and tolerability, in a 4-week multicentre parallel-group dose titration (200-600 mg/day) study with acutely ill schizophrenic patients. Forty- three patients received remoxipride CR (mean dose 344 mg/day) and 49 patients received remoxipride IR (mean dose 346 mg/day).
