Hi guys, I have been prescribed chloropromazine along with my new anti-deppresants. My doctor is unaware that I am a heroin addict. I've been doing some research on wiki and found this;
Call me stupid, but I'm rather confused. Does this mean that if I take it before my normal dose of H it will intensify the effects or just prolong the high? (felling a bit like an idiot here)
Any input would be much appreciated.
Chlorpromazine is occasionally used off-label for treatment of severe migraine. It is often, particularly in a palliative setting, used in small doses to improve the nausea that opioid-treated cancer patients encounter and to intensify and prolong the analgesic action of the opioids given. It remains controversial whether or not chlorpromazine has its own analgesic properties. Analgesic properties may result from a central action on the hypothalamus; the patient may feel pain much less than before. Other mechanisms may be an interaction with opioid receptors centrally and/or in the spinal cord. Some experts even say that chlorpromazine, like other phenothiazines, may even have antianalgesic properties.
Chlorpromazine has been shown to be the most effective substance against human infection by the brain-eating amoeba. One study concluded: "Chlorpromazine had the best therapeutic activity against Naegleria fowleri in vitro and in vivo. Therefore, it may be a more useful therapeutic agent for the treatment of primary amoebic meningoencephalitis than amphotericin B."[8]
In Germany, chlorpromazine still carries label indications for insomnia and severe pruritus, as well as preanesthesia.[9] It is also used in the withdrawal of heroin.but under medical supervision.
