Endocrine changes from thiethylperazine often involve hyperprolactinemia. This causes galactorrhea and gynecomastia. Other endocrine disorders occur rarely. Allergic reactions to thiethylperazine can be expressed various ways. Cholestatic jaundice can be seen in 2-4 weeks from starting therapy.
Patients can have eosinophilia, abdominal pain, and elevated liver-function tests.
Bone marrow depression, bronchospasm, and skin reactions also may be immunologically mediated. Phenothiazines do not cause physical or psychological dependence. These effects are only temporary. Generic thiethylperazine tablets are not yet available. Take thiethylperazine tablets by mouth.
