Hi guys,
Well I came across this little number in the BNF, the kinda book/database thingy doctors use here in the UK (ie which drugs are licensed here) and this was under the section 'other antidepressant drugs' ie ones that don't fit into any particular catergory eg effexor, remeron, etc.
Here's what it says:
'The thioxanthene flupentixol (Fluanxol®) has antidepressant properties, and low doses (1 to 3 mg daily) are given by mouth for this purpose. Flupentixol is also used for the treatment of psychoses'
I've never ever heard of it!! Have you??
I'm just curious.
Kind regards
Meri
