meperidine is Demerol, a narcotic painkiller. Promethazine is an anti-psychotic, more often prescribed as a tranquilizer

Promethazine IS NOT an antipsychotic!

Promethazine is an antihistamine/anitemetic used to treat allergic reactions and prevent nausea.

That is why, in the case of this pill, it is coupled with the narcotic, to help prevent nausea as a side effect!

VERWON - if you do the research you'll see that it was ORIGINALLY prescribed as an anti-psycotic

Yes, NO LONGER, but originally was & still has potential similar side-effects such as NMS & TD. And not to say that it still can't be prescibed as one !
