Delayed onset, protracted delirium and aspiration pneumonitis associated with a combination of clozapine and electroconvulsive therapy

Indian Journal of Psychological Medicine, 2011
Few studies reported the efficacy and safety in combination of clozapine and electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) in schizophrenia; systematic studies are lacking. Side effects like seizure, and confusional state are reported.

Clozapine:norclozapine ratio as a marker of metabolic risk and therapeutic response and effect of valproate on clozapine levels

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Clozapine is the most effective antipsychotic in treatment‐resistant schizophrenia. Clozapine causes weight gain and increased diabetes risk. The role of its metabolite norclozapine and clozapine:norclozapine ratio (CLZ/NCLZ) in metabolic effects has been debated.

Virtual Twin Approach Using Physiologically Based Pharmacokinetic Modeling to Support Precision Dosing of Valproic Acid in Geriatric Patients

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Personalized dosing is particularly important for drugs with narrow therapeutic indices in geriatric patients, who exhibit substantial physiological variability and limited pharmacokinetic (PK) evidence to guide individualized dose selection. Valproic acid (VPA) is an effective treatment option for bipolar disorder in older adults, yet dosing largely ...

Anterior cingulate cortex neuron subtypes differentially regulate seizures

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This study aimed to investigate the regulatory roles of distinct neuronal subtypes within the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) in acute seizures and to identify cell type‐specific mechanisms underlying seizure modulation in this region. Methods Acute seizure models were established in mice via pentylenetetrazol injection.

New insights into epileptic spasm generation and treatment from the TTX animal model

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Currently, we have an incomplete understanding of the mechanisms underlying infantile epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS). However, over the past decade, significant efforts have been made to develop IESS animal models to provide much‐needed mechanistic information for therapy development.

Psychopharmacological Prescribing Patterns Among Italian Adolescents With Anorexia Nervosa: Exploring Real‐World Treatment Practices

European Eating Disorders Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To investigate real‐world psychopharmacological prescribing patterns among Italian adolescents with anorexia nervosa (AN) compared with psychiatric controls without eating disorders, and to examine whether AN diagnosis independently predicts medication use after accounting for psychiatric comorbidities.

Hypotensive Episodes Precede Cognitive Fluctuations in Parkinson's Disease Dementia

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Cognitive fluctuations (CFs) are a disabling feature in Parkinson's disease dementia (PDD) and contribute to caregiver burden. The relationship between CFs and neurogenic orthostatic hypotension (nOH), a common autonomic complication in PDD, has not been adequately examined.

The potential influence of estrogen-containing oral contraception on clozapine metabolism in a patient with known pharmacogenomic status [PDF]

Mental Health Clinician
Clozapine is primarily metabolized via cytochrome P450(CYP)1A2 and to a lesser extent CYP3A4, CYP2C19, and CYP2D6. Metabolic inhibitors of clozapine, such as fluvoxamine and ciprofloxacin, are important to recognize to avoid adverse drug events. Estrogen-

Placebo Effect in Levodopa‐Induced Dyskinesia: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Levodopa‐induced dyskinesia (LID) is a complication of Parkinson's disease (PD) treatment. While the placebo effect is a known component in PD clinical trials, its specific magnitude in the context of LID is not well characterized.
