Pipamperone

Summary

Pipamperone (INN, USAN, BAN), also known as carpiperone and floropipamide or fluoropipamide, and as floropipamide hydrochloride (JAN), is a typical antipsychotic of the butyrophenone family used in the treatment of schizophrenia[2][3] and as a sleep aid for depression.[4] It is or has been marketed under brand names including Dipiperon, Dipiperal, Piperonil, Piperonyl, and Propitan.[3] Pipamperone was discovered at Janssen Pharmaceutica in 1961, and entered clinical trials in the United States in 1963.[5]

Pharmacology edit

 
Pipamperon Neuraxpharm, 40mg

Pipamperone acts as an antagonist of the 5-HT2A,[6] 5-HT2B,[7] 5-HT2C[8] D2,[6] D3,[9] D4,[6][10] α1-adrenergic,[9] and α2-adrenergic receptors.[9] It shows much higher affinity for the 5-HT2A and D4 receptors over the D2 receptor (15-fold in the case of the D4 receptor, and even higher in the case of the 5-HT2A receptor),[6][9][11] being regarded as "highly selective" for the former two sites at low doses.[11][12] Pipamperone has low and likely insignificant affinity for the H1 and mACh receptors, as well as for other serotonin and dopamine receptors.[9]

Pipamperone is considered to have been a forerunner to the atypical antipsychotics, if not an atypical antipsychotic itself, due to its prominent serotonin antagonism.[13][14][15] It is also used to normalise mood and sleep patterns and has antianxiety effects in neurotic patients.[16]

Antidepressant effects edit

Low-dose pipamperone (5 mg twice daily) has been found to accelerate and enhance the antidepressant effect of citalopram (40 mg once daily), in a combination (citalopram/pipamperone) referred to as PipCit (code name PNB-01).[11][18]
