Indications
Fluanxol Depot (Flupentixol) is indicated for the treatment of psychotic disorders, including schizophrenia and mood disorders. It is used in patients requiring long-term management who may benefit from intramuscular administration of an antipsychotic. This formulation allows for prolonged release of the drug, facilitating treatment adherence in patients who have difficulties with oral therapy. Additionally, Fluanxol can be used in the treatment of manic episodes and in the prevention of relapses in stabilized patients. It is important that the indication and treatment are supervised by a specialist physician.

Each ampoule of Fluanxol Depot contains 20 mg of Flupentixol (as Flupentixol decanoate) in 1 ml of injectable solution.
Contraindications
Fluanxol is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to flupentixol or any of the excipients in the formulation. It should not be administered to patients with a history of agranulocytosis or leukopenia, as well as those with Parkinson's disease or coma due to intoxication with alcohol or central nervous system depressants.
Precautions
Caution should be exercised when administering Fluanxol to patients with a history of seizures, cardiovascular diseases, or those with conditions that may predispose to hyperthermia.
