Imiclopazine is an antipsychotic drug of the phenothiazines class, developed in the 1960s by the pharmaceutical company Asta-Werke under the brand name Ponsital. It demonstrated strong sedative and antiemetic properties.[4] [5]

It was initially researched for the treatment of schizophrenia and had favorable clinical trials,[6] but ultimately was never brought to market.[4]
