Chlorpromazine
The first antipsychotic medication, introduced in the 1950s, that blocks dopamine D2 receptors and multiple other neurotransmitter receptors, used for the treatment of schizophrenia, mania, nausea, and intractable hiccups. Its discovery revolutionized psychiatry and led to the deinstitutionalization of many psychiatric patients. It carries significant risks of extrapyramidal symptoms, tardive dyskinesia, metabolic effects, and sedation.
