Chlorpromazine is an anti-psychotic medication in a group of drugs called phenothiazine’s (FEEN-oh-THYE-a-zeens). It works by changing the actions of chemicals in your brain.

Chlorpromazine is used to treat psychotic disorders such as schizophrenia or manic-depression, and severe behavioural problems in children ages 1 through 12.

Chlorpromazine is also used to treat nausea and vomiting, anxiety before surgery, chronic hiccups, acute intermittent porphyria, and symptoms of tetanus.

Chlorpromazine may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.

• Section 3 – HAZARDOUS IDENTIFICATION

  Potential Acute Health Effects

  Extremely hazardous in case of inhalation. Very hazardous in case of skin contact (irritant, permeator), of eye contact (irritant), of ingestion. Severe over-exposure can result in death. Inflammation of the eye is characterized by redness, watering, and itching. Skin inflammation is characterized by itching, scaling, reddening, or, occasionally, blistering.

  Potential Chronic Health Effects

  Extremely hazardous in case of inhalation. Very hazardous in case of skin contact (irritant, permeator), of eye contact (irritant), of ingestion.

  Developmental Toxicity

  N/A. The substance is toxic to blood, the nervous system, liver. Repeated or prolonged exposure to the substance can produce target organs damage. Repeated exposure to an highly toxic material may produce general deterioration of health by an accumulation in one or many human organs. Repeated or prolonged exposure is not known aggravate medical condition.

• Section 4 – FIRST AID

  Eye Contact

  Check for and remove any contact lenses. Do not use an eye ointment. Seek medical attention.

  Skin Contact

  After contact with skin, wash immediately with plenty of water. Gently and thoroughly wash the contaminated skin with running water and non-abrasive soap. Be particularly careful to clean folds, crevices, creases and groin. Cold water may be used. Cover the irritated skin with an emollient. If irritation persists, seek medical attention. Wash contaminated clothing before reusing.

  Serious Skin Contact

  Wash with a disinfectant soap and cover the contaminated skin with an anti-bacterial cream. Seek medical attention.

  Inhalation

  Allow the victim to rest in a well-ventilated area. Seek immediate medical attention.

  Serious Inhalation

  Evacuate the victim to a safe area as soon as possible. Loosen tight clothing such as a collar, tie, belt or waistband. If breathing is difficult, administer oxygen. If the victim is not breathing, perform mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. Seek medical attention.

  Ingestion

  Do not induce vomiting. Examine the lips and mouth to ascertain whether the tissues are damaged, a possible indication that the toxic material was ingested; the absence of such signs, however, is not conclusive. Loosen tight clothing such as a collar, tie, belt or waistband. If the victim is not breathing, perform mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. Seek immediate medical attention.
