Flupenthixol is a thioxanthene antipsychotic used in the treatment of schizophrenia and other psychoses, with the exception of mania and psychomotor hyperactivity due to an activating effect associated with this drug. It may also be employed as an antidepressant. Flupenthixol has a wide range of pharmacological actions. Flupenthixol blocks dopaminergic receptors, thus interfering with dopaminergic transmission in the brain. Flupenthixol also inhibits serotonin 5-HT, histamine H1, muscarinic and alpha-1 adrenergic receptors.

Bromperidol (marketed as Bromidol, Bromodol) is a butyrophenone derivative. It is a potent and long-acting neuroleptic, used as an antipsychotic in the treatment of schizophrenia. It was discovered at Janssen Pharmaceutica in 1966. Bromperidol is a bromine analog of Haloperidol hydrochloride (sc-203593) which functions as a D2DR (dopamine D2 receptor) antagonist. Studies suggest that cytochrome CYP3A4 catalyzes the dehydration of Bromperidol and N-dealkylation of Bromperidol. In addition, CYP3A4 can oxidize N-dealkylated Bromperidol back into Bromperidol. Alternately, Bromperidol antagonizes the Neuroendocrine DA receptors which regulate hypothalamic LH-RH release.
