Abstract
|
|
|
The effects of ascorbic acid a well-known as antioxidant agent, on the phototoxicity caused by phenothiazines were studied using three in vitro methods - MTT assay, the Candida test, and the RBC photohemolysis. The tested phenothiazines include Chlorpromazine, Promethazine, Perphenazine, Chlorprothixene, Trifluoperazine, and Thioridazine and UVA 1.5 J/§² were irradiated. In results, ascorbic acid was effective to reduce the phototoxicities and to decrease the production of toxic photoproducts in every method used.
