Abstract

The effect of chlorpromazine on acute lethal toxicity and nephrotoxicity induced by cisplatin was studied in mice. Chlorpromazine given (i.p.) 1 h before cisplatin greatly reduced lethal and renal toxicities of cisplatin. Chlorpromazine did not reduce the antitumor activity of cisplatin against Sarcoma 180 in ddY mice or EL-4 Leukemia in C57BL/6J mice.
