life long, no cure
need drugs all life
usually bad compliance
Term

Definition
idiopathic, shows in teens
Term
what are schizophrenia drugs called on the street, man
Definition
neuroleptic agents
major tranquilizers
Term
MOA schizophrenia
Definition
over action of biogenic amines as NT
Term
positive symptoms of schizophrenia
Definition
exaggerated distorted function
hallucinations, delusions
disorganized behavior
Term
negative symptoms of schizophrenia
Definition
loss of normal function
diminished speech
blunted emotions
loss of energy
inability to experience pleasure
Term
7 typical anti-psychotic drugs
Definition
pheothiazines
aliphatic - chlorpromazine
piperazine - trifluoperazine
fluphenazine
pierdine - thioridazine
butyrophenones
thioxanthenes
Term
what are the three most potent anti-psychotics, which is most of all
Definition
piperazine - trifluoperazine
butyrophenones
fluphenazine - MOST
Term
which anti-psychotic drugs come in depot form
Definition
butyrophenones
fluphenazine - MOST
Term
in general how to typical anti-psychotics work
Definition
interact with many NT systems and bind to many receptors antagonizing them
Term
MOA typical anti-psychotic
Definition
mostly antagonize dopamine D2 receptor (which is main one in brain)

physiological depolarization inactivation: initially increases firing at presynaptic neuron and later decreases release

post-synaptic neuron is antagonized entire time
Term
where are typical anti-psychotics acting
Definition
mesocortical mesolimbic tract
Term
how long does it take for typical anti-psychotics to work
Definition
weeks
Term
reason for extra pyrmidal side effects of anti-psychotics
Definition
D2 activity on motor systems
Term
reversible neurological extra pyrmidal side effects of anti-psychotics
Definition
acute dystonia: spasm in face, neck, back early in tx

akathisia: motor restlessness later in tx

parkinsonism

neuroleptic malignant syndrome
Term
what is neuroleptic malignant sndrome
Definition
severe parkinsons
fever
unstable BP
Term
tx neuroleptic malignant sndrome
Definition
DC anti-psychotic
dantrolene
Term
irreversible neurological extra pyrmidal side effects of anti-psychotics
Definition
tarditive dyskinesia: repetitive tick like movement of face, trunk extremities
Term
what agents most often cause irreversible neurological extra pyrmidal side effects of anti-psychotics
Definition
piperazine
heloperidol
Term
autonomic side effects of anti-psychotics cause
Definition
a-adrenergic blocking (develop tolerance over time to it tho)
Term
autonomic side effects of anti-psychotics
Definition
hypotension
sedation
stroke in elderly
Term
which antipsychotic most often causes a-adrenergic side effects, which least does
Definition
thioridazine - most
heloperidol - least
Term
endocrine side effects of anti-psychotics cause
Definition
block tuberoinfundibular dopamine pathway so it cannot regulate prolactin
Term
endocrine side effects of anti-psychotics
Definition
hyperprolactinemia
weight gain
gynecomastia
amenorrhea galactorrhea
Term
side effects specific to thioridazine
Definition
retinal deposits cause visual impairment
Term
signs of overdose of anti-psychotics
Definition
conduction defects that cause ventricular arrhytmia

probablly taking thioridazine others dont cause it much
Term
general MOA of atypical anti-psychotics
Definition
more specific to dopamine receptors causing less extra-pyrmidal side effects
Term
6 atypical anti-psychotics
Definition
clozapine
risperidone
olanzapine
quetiapine
paliperidone
airiprazole
Term
MOA clozapine
Definition
high affinity D4
low affinity D2, 5HT2, muscuranic, H1
Term
side effects of clozapine
Definition
stroke in elderly with dementia
intermediate autonomic effects
severe agranulocytosis so monitor WBC
Term
use of clozapine
