Extract

7044 is a new phenothiazine derivative which can be regarded, pharmacologically, as resembling chlorpromazine much more closely than it does promethazine. It is said to have the characteristic central properties of chlorptomazine more highly developed, and in addition anti-adrenaline properties with anti-histamine properties comparable to those of promethazine. On a theoretical basis it might have the clinical indications of chlorpromazine.
