Atypical antipsychotics are expected to be better tolerated than older antipsychotics because of their lower propensity to cause certain adverse effects. All atypical drugs have been shown to cause fewer acute extrapyramidal symptoms (EPS) than a standard typical agent (usually haloperidol) and some (clozapine, sertindole and quetiapine) appear to ...

Quetiapine, an Atypical Antipsychotic
Pharmacotherapy: The Journal of Human Pharmacology and Drug Therapy, 1998The discovery of antipsychotic agents in the 1950s revolutionized the treatment of schizophrenia. A large body of evidence supports the dopamine D2 receptor antagonist's efficacy in the treatment of psychotic symptoms. However, the advent of newer agents seems to point to a more complex interaction of neurotransmission in the pathophysiology of ...

The Dosing of Atypical Antipsychotics
Psychosomatics, 2005Drug-drug interactions or genetic variability may require using doses different from those recommended for atypical antipsychotics. Dosage alterations of olanzapine and clozapine, dependent on cytochrome P450 1A2 (CYP1A2) for clearance, and quetiapine, dependent on cytochrome P450 3A (CYP3A), may be necessary when used with other drugs that inhibit or ...
