Increased risk of stroke
16
Q

17
Q

Atypical High Potency Anti-Psychotics

A
Risperidone
Aripiprazole (Abilify)
18
Q

*Clozapine

A
Atypical AP
Low potency
Many receptors: D2/3/4; 5HT1/2/3; M1; Alpha-1; H1
Most efficient AP
LAST RESORT
Worst side effects: metabolic syndrome, weight gain, sedation, orthostatic hypotension, AGRANULOCYTOSIS (blood tests every week for 6 months, 2 weeks forever), anticholinergic, antihistaminic, anti alpha-1, prolonged QT, myocarditis
Hyper salivation  
Short half life
19
Q

Quetiapine

A

Atypical AP
Low potency
Weight gain and moderate metabolic risk, less anticholinergic than clozapine
Cataracts in animals

20
Q

Ziprazidone

A

Atypical AP
Mid to low potency
No weight gain, LEAST RISK OF METABOLIC SYNDROME, low risk of QT prolongation
Sedation

21
Q

*Olanzapine

A

Atypical AP
Mid to high potency
Similar to clozapine molecularly
Significant weight gain, metabolic risk, increased liver enzymes, hypertriglyceridemia, bad lipid profile, decreased HDL, no agranulocytosis

22
Q

Risperidone

A

Atypical AP
High potency
High affinity for 5HT2 and D2
Most typical of atypical APs: EPS, TD, Hyperprolactinemia

23
Q

Aripiprazole (Abilify)

A
Atypical AP
High potency
D2, 5HT2, Partial D1 agonist
No weight gain, increased risk of akathisia (treat with beta blocker)
Activator, so only give in the morning

Anticholinergic
Treat EPS but not TD

26
Q

Diphenhydramine (Benadryl)

A

Psychotic disorders, insomnia, anxiety disorders
Anticholinergic, antihistamine
Treat EPS, not TD
Sedative

27
Q

Cholinergics

A

Betachenol

29
Q

Betachenol

A

Cholinergic
Stimulates M1 receptor (CNS)
Reduces anticholinergic effects
