Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Acepromazine is a phenothiazine derivative that is used in the treatment of psychoses. Acepromazine has a depressant effect on the central nervous system and acts as a dopamine receptor antagonist in the central nervous system, thereby causing sedation, muscular relaxation and a reduction in spontaneous activity. Its fast-acting neuroleptic effect with low toxicity is of particular value in veterinary medicine.
