Levomepromazine-d₆ hydrochloride (Methotrimeprazine-d₆ hydrochloride) is the deuterium labeled Levomepromazine hydrochloride. Levomepromazine (Methotrimeprazine) hydrochloride is an orally active antipsychotic compound and Ca²⁺ release inducer. Levomepromazine inhibits SERCA pump and induces an increase in cytoplasmic Ca²⁺ levels. Levomepromazine hydrochloride has antagonistic effects on a variety of neurotransmitter receptors, including dopamine, cholinergic, serotonin, and histamine receptors. Levomepromazine hydrochloride can induce adaptive ER stress and autophagy. In addition, Levomepromazine hydrochloride has antiviral, anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective and analgesic, sedative and anti-injurious activities.

Stable heavy isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, and other elements have been incorporated into drug molecules, largely as tracers for quantitation during the drug development process. Deuteration has gained attention because of its potential to affect the pharmacokinetic and metabolic profiles of drugs.
