Perphenazine? Perfenazine is a common misspelling of perphenazine.
People who suffer from schizophrenia or severe nausea and vomiting can often benefit from using perphenazine (Trilafon®), a "typical antipsychotic" that is available by prescription. The medication works by blocking or lessening a certain chemical in the brain that can become elevated in people with these conditions. Side effects of perphenazine include unusual body movements, drowsiness, and blurred vision. The medication comes in tablet form and is usually taken two to four times a day.
