Notes: Fluphenazine decanoate is a prodrug form of the dopamine D1 and D2 receptor antagonist fluphenazine (Item No. 23555).{66586} It induces random mouth movements in rats, an effect that can be reversed by the dopamine receptor antagonists raclopride (Item No. 17422) or SCH 23390 (Item No. 15631). Chronic administration of fluphenazine decanoate (3 mg/kg per day) increases serum levels of prolactin and decreases luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), as well as decreases desire to mate and litter size, in male rats.{66587} It increases lethargy and passive contact and reduces self-grooming, social grooming, auditory startle response, and propensity to attack other animals in monkeys when chronically administered.{66588} Formulations containing fluphenazine decanoate have been used in the treatment of chronic schizophrenia.
