TABLE 1.

Chlorpromazine, while without effect at 5-HT1A, 5-HT3, and 5-HT4 receptors, is a 5-HT2A, 5-HT2C, 5-HT6, and 5-HT7 antagonist and thus theoretically—at least from a serotonergic perspective—does not display the ideal required profile for a vagus activator. Affinities for the dopaminergic receptors are also provided.
