Possible Lurasidone-Associated Dose-Dependent QTc Prolongation in First-Episode Psychosis.

Abstract

This case is one of the earliest to report on lurasidone-related QTc prolongation in a dose-dependent fashion in CAP population at therapeutic doses. Although these reports remain scarce, it behoves prescribers to be vigilant and mindful of these unusual but serious side effects especially in setting of cumulative risks.
