Q

why do we are about preventing mood episodes in BD

A

because on average the risk of recurrence increases with # of previous episodes

also–> number of previous episodes is associated with increased duration and symptomatic severity of subsequent episodes

also–> number of episodes is associated with lower threshold for developing further episodes

also–> increased risk of dementia with more episodes

Q

what are the three broad clinical stages in the staging system for BD

A
  1. individuals at increased risk for developing BD due to family history as well as certain subsyndromal symptoms predictive of conversion to full BD
  2. patients with fewer episodes and optimal functioning in interepisodic periods
  3. patients with recurrent episodes as well as decline in functioning and cognition

*heterogeneity in BD has prevented clinical use of staging systems

Q

should monotherapy be tried before combination therapy?

not necessarily–> treating clinician makes the decision for mono or combo therapy

combo

30

  4. Asenapine + lithium/divalproex
31
Q

list second line treatments (combo + mono) for acute mania IN ORDER

A
  1. olanzapine
  2. carmabazepine
  3. olanzapine + lithium/divalproex
  4. lithium + divalproex
  5. ziprasidone
  6. haloperidol
  7. ECT

Q

what is a mnemonic for second line treatments for acute mania

A

Only Cows On LSD Zipline Happily Evermore

33
Q

with which treatment for acute mania is there a concern for depressive switch

cariprazine

35
Q

A

lithium

quetiapine

divalproex

asenapine

36
Q

which first line agents for treatment of acute mania have evidence for preventing mania

A

all EXCEPT cariprazine

37
Q

which first line agent for acute mania has the most tolerability concerns in the acute period

A

quetiapine

38
Q

which first line agents for acute mania (3) have the most safety concerns in the maintenance period

quetiapine

divalproex

39
Q

which first line combination therapies for acute mania have the most safety concerns in the maintenance period

A

quetiapine + lithium/divalproex

risperidone + lithium/divalproex

*significant impact on treatment selection

40
Q

which combination therapy for acute mania seems to have the best tolerability and safety profile in the maintenance period

A

asenapine + lithium/divalproex

*but this is also ranked fourth in the combo ranking

the next safest/most tolerable is aripiprazole + lithium/divalproex followed by the quetipaine and risperidone combos

41
Q

does ziprasidone treat and/or prevent bipolar deprssion

A

no data for prevention

data shows it does NOT treat bipolar depression

42

does ECT treat and/or prevent bipolar deprssion

A

it seems to do both (level 4 evidence)

43
Q

does haloperidol treat and/or prevent bipolar deprssion

A

data suggests it does NOT prevent

no data with regard to treating bipolar depression

44
Q

when should efficacy of treatment for acute mania be evaluated

at the end of weeks 1 and 2 and then treatment options modified accordingly

45

A

50% within 3-4 weeks

46
Q

how does efficacy compare in acute mania treatment between the first line monotherapy agents

comparable efficacy

47
Q

for those initiating or switching treatments during the maintenance phase, which medications would be considered FIRST line for this phase of bipolar disorder

A

lithium

divalproex

lamotrigine

asenapine

aripiprazole

(monotherapy or in combination)

after one week

therefore, expect some therapeutic response to antimanic agents within 1-2 weeks

49
Q

which first line anti manic agents that are recommended for monotherapy are NOT recommended for combination therapy

A

paliperidone and ziprasidone

due to lack of evidence for additional efficacy

50

A

up to 80%

51
Q

what non-AP or mood stabilizer has level 2 evidence for treatment of acute mania and is third line

A

tamoxifen

(downgraded because of the risk of uterine cancer and lack of clinical experience DESPITE EVIDENCE FOR EFFICACY)

rTMS

53

A

glasses that block blue light

54
Q

when would you usually choose divalproex over lithium when treating mania

A
  1. person has multiple prior episodes
  2. predominant irritable or dysphoric mood
  3. comorbid substance use

and/or

  1. those with hx head trauma
55
Q

does the presence of anxious distress during a manic episode give any prognostic information

A

yes–>

predictor of poor outcome

i.e greater severity of manic symptoms, longer time to remission, more reported side effects of medication

56
Q

are there specific agents recommended to treat anxious distress is mania

A

not studies specifically examining this–> anxious distress tends to improve as the mood episode improves

post hoc analyses:
divalproex
quetiapine
olanzapine
may be helpful

57
Q

what % of manic episodes are characterized by the presence of psychosis

A

at least HALF

58
Q

does it matter whether psychotic symptoms are mood congruent or incongruent in BD

A

if psychosis is mood incongruent seem t have more severe illness with poorer long term prognosis

59
Q

is there any evidence of superiority of any first line antimanic monotherapy compared to any other when psychotic features are present?

A

no

also no evidnece that any particular combo therapy is better for psychotic features

**clinical experience suggests combo therapy of atypical AP + li/dvp more appropriate for manic patients with mood-incongruent psychotic features

60
Q

what % of patients with bipolar I have rapid cycling BD

A

about 30%

61
Q

what three other factors are often associated with rapid cycling in BD
