Mefeclorazine (INN) is a neuroleptic (antipsychotic) of the phenethylamine and arylpiperazine groups.^[1]^[2]^[3]

Part of mefeclorazine's chemical structure is based on 3,4-dimethoxyphenethylamine (DMPEA or homoveratrylamine), which has structural similarity to the neurotransmitter dopamine.^[1] Mefeclorazine was invented by Jack Mills of Eli Lilly in 1958.^[4] Although it is not known to have ever been used clinically,^[1] it is based on a chemically rational synthetic design.
