Elys' CPZ 100mg Chlorpromazine Tablets - 1 Strip of 10 Tablets
Severe psychotic disorders, acute manic episodes, and violent behavioral agitation require immediate, potent neurological stabilization. Elys' CPZ 100mg delivers classical antipsychotic therapy. Powered by Chlorpromazine, a first-generation phenothiazine, it acts by aggressively blocking post-synaptic dopamine D2 receptors in the brain. This rapidly controls hallucinations, severe agitation, and psychotic thought patterns, and is also uniquely indicated to stop intractable (uncontrollable) hiccups.
How to Use / Operate
Take orally exactly as prescribed by your psychiatrist. Usually taken in divided doses throughout the day. Swallow whole with a glass of water. Do not stop taking the medication abruptly without medical guidance.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is CPZ 100mg used for?

Important Clinical Considerations
Monitor for severe extrapyramidal symptoms (EPS) including muscle stiffness, tremors, or tardive dyskinesia.
