(Perphenazine)

The active ingredient in Trilafon is perphenazine. Perphenazine is a typical first-generation antipsychotic drug. It is thought to treat schizophrenia, nausea, and vomiting by blocking various neurotransmitters in the brain, such as dopamine, histamine, and acetylcholine.

Follow all directions given to you by your doctor and read all documents provided, including the full Prescribing Information, FDA-Approved Product Labeling, Instructions for Use, and Medication Guide before using Trilafon. However, the following is a synopsis of the general guidelines for the use of Trilafon:

• You will require frequent medical examinations.
• If you need surgery, tell your surgeon that you are currently on this medication.
• It's advisable to avoid alcohol while taking perphenazine. Drinking alcohol can worsen tiredness and dizziness, increasing the risk of falling. Doing so may potentially exacerbate mood-related symptoms.

• Tardive dyskinesia (TD) is characterised by involuntary movements such as lip smacking, eye blinking, tongue protrusion, and grimace.
• Neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS) is characterised by a high fever, rapid heart rate, muscle stiffness, and disorientation.

Boxed Warning

Patients with dementia-related psychosis who are treated with antipsychotic medicines are more likely to die, according to short-term controlled trials. Deaths looked to be either cardiovascular (e.g., heart failure, sudden death) or infectious (e.g., pneumonia).

Trilafon may increase the risk of death in older adults with dementia-related psychosis and is not approved for this use.

• Coma.
• Take heavy amounts of sedative drugs.
• Drinking excessive amounts of alcohol.
• Current blood disorders, bone marrow issues, or liver damage.
• Certain cases involving suspected or confirmed brain injury.
• Are allergic to perphenazine or other phenothiazines such as chlorpromazine, prochlorperazine, promethazine, or thioridazine.

Trilafon (perphenazine) may begin to relieve symptoms such as agitation, nausea, or anxiety within a few days, but for diseases like schizophrenia, noticeable improvements typically take several days to a few weeks, with complete benefits often apparent after 4-6 weeks of constant treatment.

When Trilafon is taken with other prescription drugs, over-the-counter medications, vitamins, and supplements, it may change how they work or increase the frequency or severity of side effects. Make sure that you tell your healthcare professional about anything that you are taking to avoid any negative drug interactions, including:

• Tricyclic antidepressants such as amitriptyline, protriptyline, or nortriptyline.
• Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) like fluoxetine, paroxetine, or sertraline.
• Serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs) such as duloxetine or venlafaxine.
• Any other medication that can cause dizziness and drowsiness, such as prescription pain medicines (opioids), barbiturates, and medicines for sleep or anxiety.
• Anticholinergics, which include antihistamines and medications used for overactive bladder, Parkinson’s disease, or stomach problems.
• Other antipsychotics like haloperidol, quetiapine, olanzapine, risperidone, and ziprasidone.

Trilafon is available in the following dosage forms and strengths: 2 mg, 4 mg, 8 mg, and 16 mg oral tablets.
