Description Chloropromazine (CPZ) and imipramine at a concentration of 1 x 10- 3 M inhibit rat brain mitochondrial monoamine oxidase activity in vitro by 70 and 55 % respectively, 'while lithium, even at a concentration of 0.05 M, inhibits the activity of this enzyme 'very negligibly (4%). In vivo, these drugs at a dose level of 56 mg CPZ, 76 mg Jimipramine and 76 mg lithium chloride/Kg body wt., did not cause any observable 'variation from normal in brain mitochondrial monoamine oxidase activity.
