Quipazine is a serotonergic drug of the piperazine group which is used in scientific research. It was originally intended as an antidepressant but never developed for medical use.[citation needed]

Pharmacology

Pharmacodynamics

Quipazine is a serotonin reuptake inhibitor,[1] and also a moderately selective serotonin receptor agonist, binding to a range of different serotonin receptors, but particularly to the 5-HT2A[2] and 5-HT3 subtypes.[3][4]

Quipazine produces a head-twitch response and other psychedelic-consistent effects in animal studies including in mice, rats, and monkeys.[5] However, it failed to produce psychedelic effects in humans at a dose of 25 mg, which was the highest dose tested due to 5-HT3 mediated side effects of nausea and gastrointestinal discomfort.[6][5] However Alexander Shulgin claimed that a fully effective psychedelic dose could be reached by blocking 5-HT3 receptors using a 5-HT3 antagonist.[7][5]

Chemistry

Quipazine is synthesized by reacting 2-chloroquinoline with piperazine.
