- Schizophrenia in acute and chronic stages
- Chronic psychoses with the development of hallucinations, delusions
- Impaired mental activity with increased agitation, aggressiveness, and hostility.
Compound
zuclopenthixol hydrochloride as an active ingredient .
Additional components: potato starch, MCC, glycerin , hydrogenated castor oil, hypromellose, titanium dioxide, lactose, copolyvidone, talc, magnesium stearate, macrogol, red iron oxide.
zuclopenthixol acetate as the active substance , and Clopixol Depot has zuclopenthixol decanoate . Additional components in these medications are argon RM1137 and medium chain triglycerides .
Pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics
The drug in all forms blocks dopamine receptors in the brain. It is considered an effective corrector of psychopathic behavior. Increases prolactin .
The active substance of the drug helps to stop the nuclear symptoms of schizophrenia : hallucinations , impaired thinking, mania. In addition, it causes a sedative effect and reduces the manifestation of associated symptoms: hostility, anxiety , suspicion and aggressiveness. Accustomion to the nonspecific sedative effect develops quickly.
The maximum content of the active substance of the tablets in the blood serum is observed after 4 hours. The medicine can be taken regardless of food. Bioavailability approximately 44%. The degree of binding to plasma proteins is approximately 99%. The half-life is about 20 hours. It is excreted from the body in feces and urine.
The active substance penetrates the placental barrier . A small amount is excreted into breast milk.
Equilibrium concentration is reached after approximately 4 days.
When using injections, a pronounced effect can be observed after 4 hours. A slightly greater effect is noticeable 1-3 days after internal administration. Then it declines.
One injection of zuclopenthixol acetate promotes a pronounced and rapid reduction in the manifestations of psychotic symptoms . The effect of the drug lasts 2-3 days. As a rule, 1-2 injections are enough for the desired effect to be achieved. Oral or other deposited forms can then be taken .
After injection of zuclopenthixol acetate, a transient dose-dependent sedation occurs . It is usually done in the initial phase of psychosis , as it calms the patient until the antipsychotic effect . After internal administration, the sedative effect appears quite quickly and becomes pronounced after 2 hours. The maximum is reached after 8 hours. Then the effect begins to weaken, even if there have been repeated injections.
After administration of the drug zuclopenthixol acetate is broken down. The half-life is about 32 hours. The maximum content in blood serum is after 1-2 days. The degree of binding to plasma proteins is high. To a small extent, it passes through the placental barrier . Some amounts are excreted into breast milk. Excreted in feces and urine.
The action of Clopixol Depot and Clopixol-Acupaz is longer compared to oral forms.
Zuclopenthixol decanoate has a dosage-dependent sedative zuclopenthixol acetate injections or zuclopenthixol the likelihood of sedation decreases. Habituation develops quickly.
Zuclopenthixol decanoate breaks down when ingested. The maximum content of the drug in the blood serum is observed at the end of the first week. Half-life is 3 weeks. The equilibrium concentration upon repeated administration is established within 3 months.
High degree of binding to plasma proteins when administered by injection. To a small extent, their active substances cross the placental barrier . A small amount is excreted into breast milk. Excreted in feces and urine.
Clopixol tablets (zuclopenthixol hydrochloride) - oral form
This form of the drug has a much longer history of use than Clopixol Akufaz and is widely used throughout the world for the treatment of schizophrenia and other mental illnesses.
To date, a large amount of information has been accumulated on the experience of using zuclopenthixol tablets in the treatment of acute psychoses, exacerbations of chronic psychoses and acute manic states. Many direct and comparative, including double-blind, tests of this drug have been carried out, confirming its high therapeutic effectiveness, comparable to the effectiveness of haloperidol and chlorpromazine.
In the UK, a multicentre study compared, using a double-blind method, the effect of tablet forms of Clopixol and chlorpromazine in acute psychoses (schizophrenia and schizoaffective psychoses). The study included patients aged 18 to 65 years who began receiving Clopixol 25–150 mg/day (average 75 mg/day) or chlorpromazine 100–600 mg/day. Starting from the second week of treatment in most patients, without compromising the therapeutic effect, the daily dose of Clopixol was reduced to 50 mg. Chlorpromazine was used mainly at a dose of 600 mg/day throughout the study (10 weeks). Both drugs showed high antipsychotic activity. According to this indicator, there was a tendency towards an advantage of Clopixol, but it did not reach the level of statistical significance.
Another multicenter study compared the effects of tablet forms of Clopixol and haloperidol on acute psychosis using a double-blind method. The average daily dose of clopixol was 33.5 mg, haloperidol - 10.3 mg. Both drugs showed equally high therapeutic activity, however, patients taking Clopixol were discharged from the psychiatric hospital earlier, which reflected the more rapid development of the antipsychotic effect of Clopixol compared to haloperidol. Clopixol caused a significantly more pronounced reduction in the anxiety-depressive component of psychosis than haloperidol. In addition, extrapyramidal symptoms in those taking Clopixol were, as a rule, transient, while in patients receiving haloperidol they were almost permanent.
Significant improvement while taking Clopixol tablets was observed in 69 - 87% of patients with acute and subacute manic conditions. A significant reduction in the acute manifestations of manic disorder was observed according to various data during the first 1 to 4 weeks of therapy. In some studies, in some of the most severe cases, treatment of the acute condition began with the use of Clopixol Acufase for the first 3 to 6 days of treatment, and then continued with Clopixol tablets. It is important to note that the use of high doses (up to 130 - 150 mg/day) was not more effective than the use of medium therapeutic doses for mania (20 - 50 mg/day). About 80% of patients received the drug at a dose of 20 - 30 mg/day, and increasing the dosage above 50 mg/day did not increase the effectiveness of therapy, but only led to an increase in the severity of side effects. Most researchers have concluded that, with a good therapeutic effect, dose reduction can begin on average 2 weeks after the start of treatment without the risk of exacerbation. It has been suggested that the treatment of mania requires slightly lower doses than for the treatment of schizophrenia.
The use of Clopixol for agitation and aggressiveness in the elderly is of particular interest. Clopixol was compared in a double-blind manner with thioridazine and the combination of haloperidol and levomepromazine. Both studies were conducted in Scandinavia and were multicenter. The first of them included inpatient dementia patients (mainly with Alzheimer's disease) aged 64 to 97 years. Their mental state was characterized by “the presence of restlessness, hostility, as well as accompanying anxiety, confusion, irritability, insomnia, delusions, hallucinations, hypochondria, and screams.” A higher effectiveness of Clopixol on insomnia was found (the difference between the drugs is statistically significant). Side effects of Clopixol occurred rarely, their severity was insignificant, and no serious adverse effects on the cardiovascular system associated with the drug were observed.
A patient population similar in demographic and clinical characteristics was used to compare Clopixol tablets with a combination of haloperidol and levomepromazine (tizercin, nozinan). The study lasted 4 weeks. The starting dose for Clopixol was 4 mg (one 2 mg tablet twice a day). In another group of patients, 1 mg of haloperidol was prescribed in the morning and 5 mg of levomepromazine in the evening. The average daily drug doses at the end of the study were slightly higher: 4.8 mg clopixol; 1.6 mg haloperidol + 7.6 mg levomepromazine. The authors concluded that for the treatment of aggression and agitation in the elderly, it is preferable to use Clopixol tablets because it acts faster and allows monotherapy.
It should be noted that, in accordance with the average dosages used for a particular mental pathology, tablets of different dosages are produced: 2, 10 and 25 mg, which makes the use of the drug more convenient.
Thus, literature data indicate that Clopixol tablets can be successfully used both in the treatment of acute and subacute psychoses, including acute manic states, and in the treatment of agitation and aggressiveness in the elderly, as well as for the correction of behavioral disorders in persons with intellectual disabilities .
Indications for use
The drug is prescribed for chronic and acute forms of schizophrenia , as well as other psychotic disorders accompanied by hallucinations , disturbances in thinking, and paranoia. In addition, it is prescribed to eliminate the state of agitation , hostility, manic phase of manic-depressive psychosis , increased anxiety, aggressiveness, mental retardation in combination with psychomotor agitation and other behavioral disorders. The drug is also used for senile dementia , accompanied by paranoid ideas, behavioral disturbances, disorientation, and confusion.
Clopixol Depot provides continuous treatment. Its active substance prevents the occurrence of relapses that may occur due to interruption in taking the pills.
Clopixol-Acupaz is used to treat acute psychoses , chronic psychoses during exacerbations and manic states.
Indications and restrictions for taking Clopixol
Zuclopenthixol is prescribed for various human mental disorders that are accompanied by productive symptoms, cognitive impairment, thinking disorders and motor agitation:
- manic episode;
- aggressiveness, including physical;
- psychosis of inorganic nature;
- schizophrenia (simple, hebephrenic, paranoid, paranoid);
- hallucinations;

The drug is not prescribed for comatose states and acute intoxication with barbiturates, alcohol or opioid analgesics. The drug is also contraindicated for pregnant women.
In pregnant women, Clopixol is able to penetrate the placental barrier; in nursing women, it is excreted in breast milk, but in small quantities (about 1% of the initial dosage). So the use of the drug in this case depends entirely on the psychiatrist’s tactics and the severity of the psychosis.
Use during the third trimester of pregnancy can cause extrapyramidal disorders - neuroleptic parkinsonism, neuroleptic malignant syndrome, acute dystonia, tardive dyskinesia and akathisia (undetectable need for movement).
There is evidence of an effect on the reproductive capacity of both women and men: erectile dysfunction, amenorrhea, galactorrhea and hyperprolactinemia may occur. There are no clinical data on the use of the drug in childhood, so administration to children is strictly not recommended.
