Thorazine

Thorazine (chlorpromazine) is a first-generation typical antipsychotic medication, not a supplement or device. This monograph details its use in managing psychosis, agitation, and severe nausea. Learn about the mechanism of action, clinical evidence, and important safety considerations for this foundational psychiatric drug. Let’s be clear from the outset: Thorazine is not a dietary supplement or a consumer medical device. It’s chlorpromazine hydrochloride, a first-generation typical antipsychotic. It’s a prescription medication, a phenothiazine, and arguably one of the most historically significant drugs in all of psychiatry.
