Fluphenazine decanoate. Its steady-state pharmacologic profile and relationship to tardive dyskinesia.
نویسنده
چکیده
A sensitive radioimmunoassay was developed to determine the steady-state, fixed-dose pharmacokinetic profile of fluphenazine decanoate in nine outpatients. To see if neuroleptic blood levels measured by this assay correlated with a clinical event, we performed a cross-sectional study of fluphenazine blood levels in 11 patients with and 17 patients without tardive dyskinesia. The results do not support the hypothesis that fluphenazine decanoate serum levels correlate with TD occurrence.

Number needed to treat and number needed to harm with paliperidone palmitate relative to long-acting haloperidol, bromperidol, and fluphenazine decanoate for treatment of patients with schizophrenia
BACKGROUND We analyzed data retrieved through a PubMed search of randomized, placebo-controlled trials of first-generation antipsychotic long-acting injectables (haloperidol decanoate, bromperidol decanoate, and fluphenazine decanoate), and a company database of paliperidone palmitate, to compare the benefit-risk ratio in patients with schizophrenia. METHODS From the eight studies that met ou...

The treatment of animals with neuroleptic drugs for periods of a few results in the induction of dopamine (DA) receptor supersensitivity that is reflected, on drugwithdrawal, by enhanced behavioural responses to DA agonist drugs (Muller and Seeman, 1978). Such phenomena have been considered to exemplify the pathophysiology of tardive dyskinesia (Baldessarini and Tarsy, 1980) despite the require...

The authors found a 31% incidence of tardive dyskinesia among 261 schizophrenic outpatients treated with neuroleptics. Multiple linear logistic regression analysis revealed a higher incidence of tardive dyskinesia among elderly patients, those with longer records of hospitalization, those for whom neuroleptic medication had little therapeutic effect, and those treated with fluphenazine. Patient...
متن کاملAn investigation on the relationship between risk factors and severity of tardive dyskinesia
The focus of most previous research concerning tardive dyskinesia has been on the impact of risk factors on the development( incidence) of this syndrome. In this paper, we report our results on the relationship between risk factors and the severity of tardive dyskinesia. A total of 33 patients diagnosed as tardive dyskinesia with no other medical illness studied: 21 males and 12 females with a ...

Background: Maintenance treatment of schizophrenia reduces relapse rates of this disease. This treatment is carried out for long periods of time and occasionally for lifelong. Dose reduction strategies are designed to maintain the benefits of antipsychotic drug therapy, while reducing the side effects. The authors tested a new dose reduction approach by increasing the interval between administr...
