Antipsychotics Flashcards

1
Q

chlorpromazine

A

Phenothiazines, neuroleptic
- TYPICAL ANTIPSYCHOTIC/ CONVENTIONAL ANTIPSYCHOTIC

Chemical type 1
- Aliphatic side chain

Primarily used to treat schizophrenia

  • block response to increased/abnormal neurotransmitter levels
  • Does not cure/elimiate fundamental and chronic though disorder
  • Decrease the intensity of hallucinations and delusions

Selective for DA receptor
- Low Potency = not selective for D2 (desired) or D1

Metabolism:

  • CYP2D6 and CYP3A4
  • Significant delay of onset 4-8 weeks

Side Effect:

  • Blockade of Cholinergic Muscarinic Receptor
    • Hyperthermia, tachycardia, urinary retention, memory impairment, blurred vision, constipation, and confusion
  • Blockade of alpha Adrenergic Receptor
    • Vasodilation, orthostatic hypotension, light headedness, reflex tachycardia and sexual dysfunction
  • Pituitary D2 Receptor Block
  • Increased prolactin release
  • Infertility and impotence

H1 histamine receptor Block
- Sedation and Weight Gain

Q

fluphenazine

A

Phenothiazine

Chemical Type I:
- Piperazine side chain

Primarily used to treat schizophrenia

  • block response to increased/abnormal neurotransmitter levels
  • Does not cure/elimiate fundamental and chronic though disorder
  • Decrease the intensity of hallucinations and delusions

Selective for DA receptor
- High Potency= more selective for D2 (desired) or D1

Metabolism:

  • CYP2D6 and CYP3A4
  • Significant delay of onset 4-8 weeks

Fluphenazine Decanoate is a slow release formula (2-4 weeks)

  • Deep gluteal intramuscular injection
  • Used for patients non-compliant with oral meds

Mechanism:
- Inhibits ATP to cAMP formation

Side Effect:

  • Blockade of Cholinergic Muscarinic Receptor
    • Hyperthermia, tachycardia, urinary retention, memory impairment, blurred vision, constipation, and confusion
  • Blocks Dopamine D2R
  • Pituitary D2 Receptor Block
  • Increased prolactin release
  • Infertility and impotence

H1 histamine receptor Block
- Sedation and Weight Gain

Side Effect:
- Neuroleptic Malignant Syndrome (NMS)
- Instability and collapse of ANS
- Excessive sweating/salivary excretion
- Unstable BP and CV instabitility
- Fever, muscle stiffness, delirium, stupr
- Incidence: 0.2 to 3.2% of patients
Fatal in 10% of these
- Less likely if had been stable before
- Manifested in patients with Parkinson's disease who stop/reduce dose of Dopaminergics
