Antipsychotic Jeopardy Flashcards
Chlorpromazine
Thorazine
first antipsychotic (LOW potency) first psychotropic
anti-cholinergic
antihistaminic
a1 adrenergic antagonist
TX: intractable hiccups
High vs Low potency
antipsychotics differ in the D2 receptor binding affinity
Haloperidol
Haldol
TX: agitation in ER/hospital; tourette’s sx
PO, IM, IV
EPS side effect
Trihexyphenidyl
benztropine
Diphenhydramine
(Benadryl)
TX chronic schizophrenia
Haloperidol + Fluphenzanine
FGAs given IM every 2-4 hrs
Prochlorperazine
Compazine
D2 blocker
ANTIEMETIC > antipsychotic use
Thioridazine
Mellaril
INC risk dose dependent:
QTc prolongation
torsades de pointes
cardiotoxicity
Clozapine
Clozaril
most efficacious but lots of AE
Metabolic syndrome
Seizure induction - slow titration
Abrupt Stop: WBC
Quetiapine
Seroquel
TX: Lewy body dementia, Parkinson’s
approved for bipolar depression
low risk of EPS
Risperidone
AE: Prolactin Elevation
Olanzapine
Zyprexa
AE: metabolic syndrome (check glucose, lipids)
Ziprasidone
Geodon
SGAs
AE: QTc prolongation
Aripiprazole
Abilify
SGA
partial Dopamine agonist
TX: adjunct of major depression
AE: akathisia
switching to aripiprazole (abilify) from a different antipsychotic, before the other antipsychotic has WASHED OUT, abilify—at least in theory— initially does is D2 receptors AGONIST
metabolically “NeutrAALZ”
Aripiprazole
Asenapine
Lurasidone
Ziprasidone
Tardive Dyskinesia
AE typical antipsychotic
repetitive involuntary purposeless movement
