What does chlorpromazine come up as?

Answer:

This is what Chlorpromazine is for. Antipsychosi(Bi-Polar etc.)

Chlorpromazine is chemically brokedown into a Benzodiazapine

Pharmacokinetics

Chlorpromazine, and many other phenothiazine derivatives, are very lipophilic molecules that readily bind with membranes and proteins. Approximately 95-98% of the drug is bound in the plasma; 85% of the drug is bound to the plasma protein albumin. Renal disease may cause this range to expand significantly. Highest concentrations of the drug can be found in the brain, lung, and other tissues that receive a high supply of blood. It can also enter fetal circulation and breast milk, so pregnant and nursing mothers must beware, especially since fetuses have a low rate of phenothiazine metabolism. The elderly also have a slower rate of metabolism, but it seems that children have the highest. The anticholinergic properties only slightly influence chlorpromazine's absorption from the gastrointestinal tract, compared to other neuropleptics such as Fluphenazine.

Bioavailability: Only about 32% of the administered dose is available to the systemic circulation in the active form. Over time and multiple administrations, bioavailability may drop to 20%. Peak concentrations are achieved in 1 to 4 hours. [7]Pharmacokinetics
