28
Q

Lithium Carbonate Drug Interactions

A

Drugs alter urinary excretion - Diuretics (Paradoxically used to control diabetes incipidus), NSAIDs, Anticholinergic drugs

29
Q

Other Depression Treatment

A

Electroconvulsive therapy - Effective, Less side effects and toxicity, Loss of memory, Lethal in elder
Rapid MDD reversal with IV Ketamine - Low dose ketamine can reverse MDD or bipolar depression in few hour and relief lasts week, Reduce suicidal ideation; Classified dis-associative anesthetic that blocks NMDA glutamate receptors to produce amnesia and analgesia; Psychomimetic side effects

30
Q

Symptoms of Schizophrenia

A

Diagnosis - 2 or more of following, for 6mo and 1mo active:
Positive - 1/3
Delusions, Hallucinations, Disorganized speech and behavior, Disorganized/Catonic behavior
Negative - Flattening, Alogia or Avolition
Cognitive - Memory, Judgement problem, Decreased empathy and problems, Visual tracking delay or Olfactory deficit

31
Q

Therapeutic Target for Antipsychotic Drugs

A

Block Dopamine (D2) receptors at meso-limbic dopamine cells (Reduce positive signs of psychosis), Block dopamine at chemoreceptor trigger zone, Blocks Ach receptor and Block 5HT2a receptors reduce extrapyramidal side effects (5HT2a blocks positive and negative symptoms)

32
Q

A

Striatal (Basal Ganglia) - Extrapyramidal effects, Tardive dyskinesia (Valbenazine helps for this)
