Fenethazine (INN) (brand names Anergen, Contralergial, Ethysine, Etisine, Lisergan, Lysergan; former developmental code names RP-3015, SC-1627, WY-1143), also known as phenethazinum, is a first-generation antihistamine of the phenothiazine group.[1] Promethazine, and subsequently chlorpromazine, were derived from fenethazine.[2] Fenethazine, in turn, was derived from phenbenzamine.[3]
