Fluanxol/ Flupenthixol

[Nikita Munro]

That's great, thank you so much.

Could I ask please, do you know why the Fluanxol is banned in some countries?

Thanks very much for your help

Nikita:

I wouldn't say it was banned, its just not approved for use in some countries. It is a thioxanthene closely related to the older phenothiazines, all of which have certain side effects that are problematic, and not found with the newer antipsychotics.
