Abnormal electrocardiographic findings in a case of Chlorpromazine poisoning are presented. The manifestations and mechanisms of cardiac effects of phenothiazines have been discussed. Patients on prolonged phenothiazine therapy should have a regular cardiological follow up to avoid catastrophe. A pretreatment electrocardiogram will help to detect the high risk patients.
