Abstract:
The effect of chlorpromazine (CPZ) on the toxicity of doxorubicin (DOX) were investigated in mice. CPZ significantly enhanced the acute toxicity and bone marrow toxicity induced by DOX. These results suggest the potentiation of DOX toxicity by CPZ is due to increase of sensitivity of mice to DOX.
