Loxapine (LoxapacLoxitane)

is a typical antipsychotic medication, used primarily in the treatment of schizophrenia. It is a member of the dibenzoxazepine class and structurally related to clozapine (which belongs to the chemically akin class ofdibenzodiazepines). Several researchers have argued that Loxapine may behave as anatypical antipsychotic.

Loxapine may be metabolized by N-demethylation to amoxapine, a tetracyclic antidepressant.
