pine
done
D2 partial agonists end with
azole
The 2 D2 partial agonists/5HT2 antagonists
Cariprazine
Lumateperone
Pimvanserin is a
Pure 5HT2 antagonist
Which generation of antipsychotic has greater affinity for 5HT2
SGA
D2 antagonism where causes what
Basal ganglia
EPS
Stages/progression of EPS
Dystonia
Akathesia
Pseudoparkinsonism
Tardive dyskinesia
How to treat EPS
Lower dose
Change to dirty drug
SGA cause less EPS than FGA
Types of dementia
MCI
Alzheimer’s
Vascular
Lewy body
Frontotemporal
MMSE weakness
Relies on language and is less accurate if poorly educated
MMSE parameters
Orientation
Memory
Attention
Language
Visuospatial fxn
How is MoCA different from MMSE
MoCA more sensitive to mild symptoms
MoCA parameters
Orientation
Delayed word recall
Attention
Language
Visuospatial
AD clinical manifestation progression
Memory
Language
Reasoning
Behavior
AD proteins
Amyloid alphabeta peptides
Tau proteins
Frontotemoral dementia is characterized by
Mood and aphasia
Frontotemporal dementia responds well to
But not
SSRIs
CEI may worsen
Lewy body dementia is characterized by
Hallucinations
Parkinson’s symptoms
Lewy body dementia should not be treated with
Typical APD
May worsen motor symptoms
Nonpharm treatment for dementia
Educate pt and care giver
Exercise
Eliminate comorbidities
Ethanol avoid and meds that worsen
Drugs to avoid in dementia
CNS depressants
Benzos
Opioids
Anticholinergics
Antipsychotics
Drugs for dementia
CEIs
Donepezil
Galantamine
Rivastigmine
Glutamatergic inhibitor
Memantine
AD patients have less
Which decreases
Choline acetyl transferase
ACh synthesis
Donepezil
Dosing
Formulation
5-10mg QD
Tabs or ODT
Rivastigmine
Dosing
Formulations
1.5-6 mg BID
Caps Sln and TD patch
Patch is 4.6-13.3 mg QD
Galantamine
Dosing
Formulations
IR 4-12 mg
ER 4-24 mg
Tabs Sln ER caps
When is donepezil given and why
AM to avoid vivid dreams
Rivastigmine is specifically for
Dementia in PD
Galantamine requires
Renal adjustments
CEIs take how long to be efficacious
3-6 months
CEIs cause
SLUDS BB
What supplements do people try to give with dementia
Vitamin E
Ginkgo biloba
Curcumin
None has evidence
Tx for anxiety in dementia
Buspar
SSRI
Gabapentin
Rather than benzodiazepines
Tx dementia apathy
Stimulants
Tx dementia depression
SSRIs
Mirtazapine
Not TCA due to antiACh
Tx dementia insomnia
Melatonin
Not benzodiazepines or Z drugs
Tx dementia hallucinations
Atypical APD low dose
How to treat MCI
No drugs needed
Tx Alzheimer’s
CEI and memantine
Tx vascular dementia
Control CV risk factors
BP
Statin
ASA
LB dementia Tx
CEI and memantine
Frontotemporal dementia tx
Antidepressants are good here
Speech therapy
Phenothiazine SAR
Position 2 EWG
-not 1 and 4
3 carbon chain btwn Ns
Tert amine
Why does fluphenazine have less antimuscarinic fx
It has an ethanol group on the sidechain
Which antipsychotic phenothiazide is prodrug
Fluphenazine decanoate
Which APD has an active sulfoxide metabolite
Thioridazine
Which APD causes QT prolongation
Thioridazine
You should not give thioridazine to
Poor 2D6 metabolizers
Clozapine is a
D4/D2 5HT2 antagonist
Clozapine may cause
Because it has a
Agranulocytosis
Reactive nitrenium ion
What APD dibenzazepine has no agranulocytosis
And why
Olanzapine
It doesn’t have an EWG
Has sulfur group
This alters metabolism
What is added to olanzapine to make IM sln
How does it help?
Pamoate ion
Much less water soluble
Why is loxapine not considered atypical
Still has EPS
Loxapines active metabolite
And mechanism of action
Amoxapine
Blocks NE reuptake
NRI
Which two APD have less antimuscarinic SEs
and why
Fluphenazine and quetiapine
They have an ethanol on their sidechain
Which APD flourobutyrophenone is a prodrug
Haloperidol decanoate
What toxicity does haloperidol have
Neurotoxic HPP+
Causes EPS
N is oxidized then the sidechain is dehydrated and becomes aromatic
This APD like haloperidol has DA antagonism
But it Lao has
Lumateperone
5HT2A antagonism
Lumateperone should not be taken with
3A4 inhibitors/inducers
Risperidone is metabolized into
Paliperidone
Which atypical APD is mostly excreted unchanged
Paliperidone
What atypical APD is a prodrug
Paliperidone palmitate
Which D2 partial agonist is a prodrug
Aripiprazole lauroxil
Cariprazine is a
D3/D2 partial agonist like the -iprazoles
Three drugs for tardive dyskinisia
Tetrabenazine
Deuterbenazine
Valbenazine
Samidorphan is an
Opioid receptor antagonist/partial agonist
