    Product Description

    Mesoridazine is an active metabolite of the typical antipsychotic thioridazine (Item No. 14400).1,2 It is formed via sulfoxidation of thioridazine by the cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoform CYP2D6 in human liver microsomes.3 It binds to histamine H1, dopamine D2, muscarinic acetylcholine, and α1- and α2-adrenergic receptors (Kds = 1.8, 19, 69, 2, and 1,600 nM, respectively).2 Mesoridazine (10, 30, and 45 mg/kg, i.p.) prevents mescaline-induced hyperactivity in mice.4
