So my grandma has been in IP for a little while due to a huge mental breakdown when she tried opening the door of my cousin's car to "escape". (She did this on the highway while my cousin, dad, and aunt were driving her to a dr's appt at the local hospital. They had to put on the child lock right when she tried tanking on the door handle.) Then she kept saying how they were keeping her hostage and that they didn't want her to go home and feed my grandpa (who obv died on July 4th of this year). She called 911 on them and all that when they were outside the hospital, accusing them of trying to poison her. That's when the police came, had a discussion, and she was brought to IP.
We called the psychiatrist at the psychiatric hospital and he said he gave her Klonopin and something else, but I don't know what. He pronounced it as "pro-sip-eh-teen". Any ideas? (The pronunciation could be in Spanish since the primary language there is Spanish.) It's not Prolixin because that's dangerous for dementia patients like her. I could also have the first letter of the name wrong. The psychiatrist hasn't been returning our calls and we just want to know. So I figured I'd ask here |

There's procyclidine which could sound close, but it's primarily used for drug induced Parkinson's-like symptoms. I don't know about off-label uses. Good luck.
