Acepromazine a potent neuroleptic agent with a low order of toxicity, is of particular value in the tranquilization of dogs, cats and horses. Its rapid action and lack of hypnotic effect are added advantages. Acepromazine is a commonly used tranquilizer/sedative in dogs, cats, horses, and other animals. Veterinarians typically prescribe acepromazine to quiet agitated animals or use it as a part of an anesthetic protocol. It is important to note that when used alone, acepromazine is not an effective pain reliever and does little if anything to relieve a pet’s anxiety or fear. Acepromazine can also be used to treat motion sickness and nausea associated with car or plane rides. The mechanism by which acepromazine decreases a pet’s alertness is not fully understood. It is thought to block dopamine receptors in the brain or inhibit the activity of dopamine in other ways.

Curcumin is a bright yellow chemical produced by some plants, for example, it is the principal curcuminoid of turmeric. It is sold as a food flavoring, food colorant, herbal supplement, and cosmetic ingredient. Although curcumin has been widely studied it has not been officially endorsed for any pharmaceutical use due to issues of stability and bioavailability; although it continues to b marketed as a health supplement. Curcumin has been investigated for the treatment of a number of cancers, asthma, mucositis, schizophrenia, mild cognitive impairment, and depression.
Sarcosine, also known as N-methylglycine, is a metabolite of glycine. It shares properties with both glycine and D-serine, though its effects are weaker. Sarcosine supplementation can be used to alleviate symptoms of depression and schizophrenia, or improve cognition. It is absorbed more reliably by the body than D-serine, which can also treat similar conditions. Sarcosine is being investigated for its connection to prostate cancer. It may be a biomarker for prostate cancer, which means that if sarcosine levels in the blood are higher than normal, it could be an indicator of prostate cancer. This doesn’t mean that sarcosine itself causes cancer. More research is needed to confirm this relationship. Sarcosine’s main mechanism involves inhibiting a transporter, called GlyT1, which takes up glycine and D-serine into cells. This increases the levels of glycine and D-serine in the body and increases their effects. Sarcosine, a glycine transporter type 1 inhibitor and an N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor co-agonist at the glycine binding site, potentiates NMDA receptor function. Sarcosine is an inhibitory glycine receptor agonist.

Lenperone (AHR 2277), or 4’-fluoro-4 [4-(p-fluorobenzoyl) piperidino] butyrophenone hydrochloride, is an antipsychotic compound which has been shown in preliminary experiments to possess those features essential for neuroleptic activity. Dopamine antagonist.

Oxypertine (Equipertine, Forit, Integrin, Lanturil, Lotawin, Opertil) is a neuroleptic drug and was originally introduced as a treatment for schizophrenia in the 1960s. Oxypertine is an indole derivative with general properties similar to those of the phenothiazine, chlorpromazine. It has been given by mouth in the treatment of various psychoses including schizophrenia, mania, and disturbed behaviour, and of severe anxiety. Like reserpine and tetrabenazine, oxypertine depletes catecholamines, though not serotonin, possibly underlying its neuroleptic efficacy. The molecular structure is strongly similar to solypertine and milipertine.

Amperozide (FG 5606, N-ethyl-4-[4',4'-bis(p-fluorophenyl)butyl]-1-piperazine-carboxamide) is an atypical antipsychotic drug which has relatively weak in vitro affinity for striatal dopamine2 (D2) receptors and a strong affinity for the cortical 5-HT2A receptor. It was shown in animal models, that amperozide could attenuate craving for cocaine. In addition, this drug was studied in patients with schizophrenia and was shown, that several patients had improvements as was assessed by the Clinical Global Improvement Scale. However, these studies were discontinued.

Sertindole (brand names: "Serdolect" and "Serlect") is an antipsychotic medication. Sertindole was developed by the Danish pharmaceutical company Lundbeck and marketed under license by Abbott Labs. Like other atypical antipsychotics, it has activity at dopamine and serotonin receptors in the brain. It is used in the treatment of schizophrenia. Sertindole is not approved for use in the United States and was discontinued in Australia in January 2014. In Europe, sertindole was approved and marketed in 19 countries from 1996, but its marketing authorization was suspended by the European Medicines Agency in 1998 and the drug was withdrawn from the market. In 2002, based on new data, the EMA's CHMP suggested that Sertindole could be reintroduced for restricted use in clinical trials, with strong safeguards including extensive contraindications and warnings for patients at risk of cardiac dysrhythmias, a recommended reduction in maximum dose from 24 mg to 20 mg in all but exceptional cases, and extensive ECG monitoring requirement before and during treatment.
Trifluperidol is an antipsychotic butyrophenone derivative. It is a high-affinity sigma receptor blocker and it was strongly selective for NR1a/2B receptors. It exhibit pharmacological effects and a mechanism of action very similar to that of phenothiazines and thioxanthenes in that it blocks dopaminergic receptors. It is more selective with respect to D2 receptors. Trifluperidol is indicated for the treatment of acute and chronic schizophrenia, mania and hypomania, organic psychoses, childhood behavioral disorders, agitation in psychotic illness and motor tics. Trifluperidol has been suspected as a cause of cataract in Japan. Patients receiving trifluperidol treatment may develop a parkinsonian-like syndrome which responds to withdrawal of the drug or concurrent administration of an anti-parkinsonian drug. Acute dystonias and akathisia are other acute extrapyramidal effects; tardive dyskinesia may supervene after longer periods of treatment.
