Loxapine, amoxapine and their 8-hydroxylated derivatives were studied by means of [3H]imipramine binding to rat cortical membranes, [3H]spiperone binding to rat striatal membranes and the inhibition of serotonin uptake by human platelets. The following order of inhibitors of [3H]imipramine binding was found: amoxapine > hydroxyamoxapine > loxapine = hydroxyloxapine; inhibitors of platelet serotonin uptake: hydroxyamoxapine > amoxapine > hydroxyloxapine > loxapine; and inhibitors of [3H]spiperone binding: loxapine > amoxapine > hydroxyamoxapine > hydroxyloxapine. The antipsychotic properties of loxapine and amoxapine were supported by the binding results, which also indicated the probably antipsychotic activities of the metabolites. All 4 compounds may possess dual action of antidepressant effect as well as antipsychotic effects.
