The multicriterial analysis proved that the antimutagenic effect fluphenazine exerted on human blood cells cultured in the presence of the standard mutagens was 60-time stronger than the effect exerted by todralazine. Future attempts to obtain chemical derivatives of fluphenazine should yield compounds which possess the antimutagenic activity but manifest a low or none psychotropic action.
