Pimozide - CAS 2062-78-4

Pimozide (R6238) is a diphenylbutylpiperidine derivative and a dopamine antagonist with the antipsychotic property. Pimozide selectively inhibits type 2 dopaminergic receptors in the central nervous system (CNS), thereby decreasing dopamine neurotransmission and reducing the occurrence of the motor and vocal tics and delusions of parasitosis. In addition, this agent antagonizes alpha-adrenergic and 5-HT2 receptors.
