Overview

Molindone hydrochloride is a neuroleptic with atypical properties. It exhibits many similarities to other neuroleptics, including dopamine receptor blockade, antipsychotic efficacy, and extrapyramidal side effects. However, it also inhibits monoamine oxidase and may be less likely to cause tardive dyskinesia. Clinically, molindone can cause weight loss and may have less effect on seizure threshold than conventional antipsychotic agents.
