Pipamperone (INN, USAN, BAN), sold under the brand name Dipiperon, is a typical antipsychotic of the butyrophenone family used in the treatment of schizophrenia [2] [3] and as a sleep aid for depression. [4] It is or has been marketed under brand names including Dipiperon, Dipiperal, Piperonil, Piperonyl, and Propitan. [3] Pipamperone was discovered at Janssen Pharmaceutica in 1961, and entered clinical trials in the United States in 1963. [5]

Medical uses

Pipamperone was developed for use as an antipsychotic in the treatment of schizophrenia.

Pipamperone might be useful as a hallucinogen antidote or "trip killer" in blocking the effects of serotonergic psychedelics like psilocybin. [6]

Pharmacology

Pipamperon Neuraxpharm, 40mg

Pipamperone acts as an antagonist of the 5-HT2A, [7] 5-HT2B, [8] 5-HT2C [9] D2, [7] D3, [10] D4, [7] [11] α1-adrenergic, [10] and α2-adrenergic receptors. [10] It shows much higher affinity for the 5-HT2A and D4 receptors over the D2 receptor (15-fold in the case of the D4 receptor, and even higher in the case of the 5-HT2A receptor), [7] [10] [12] being regarded as "highly selective" for the former two sites at low doses. [12] [13] Pipamperone has low and likely insignificant affinity for the H1 and mACh receptors, as well as for other serotonin and dopamine receptors. [10]

Pipamperone is considered to have been a forerunner to the atypical antipsychotics, if not an atypical antipsychotic itself, due to its prominent serotonin antagonism. [14] [15] [16] It is also used to normalise mood and sleep patterns and has antianxiety effects in neurotic patients. [17]

Antidepressant effects

Low-dose pipamperone (5 mg twice daily) has been found to accelerate and enhance the antidepressant effect of citalopram (40 mg once daily), in a combination (citalopram/pipamperone) referred to as PipCit (code name PNB-01). [12] [19]
