Most antipsychotics have the potential to worsen the motor symptoms of PD; quetiapine, clozapine, and pimavanserin are commonly used for the treatment of idiopathic PD because these medications tend to be comparatively well tolerated. Although psychotic symptoms may also occur in monogenic forms of PD, no reviews have focused on the use of antipsychotic medications in this context. The objective of the present systematic review was to characterize the effectiveness and tolerability of quetiapine, clozapine, and pimavanserin in monogenic PD-associated psychosis. A literature search was performed with PubMed, Scopus, and Embase. The search yielded 24 eligible articles describing 30 individuals, although treatment response with respect to psychotic symptoms was described in only 11 cases; of these, six individuals experienced symptomatic improvement or remission (four with clozapine and two with quetiapine), two exhibited a poor therapeutic response (one to clozapine and one to quetiapine), and the other three responded initially to antipsychotic therapy before experiencing a recurrence of symptoms. The use of quetiapine and clozapine in <i>GBA</i> variant-associated PD is briefly reviewed separately. Notably, no reports of pimavanserin therapy were identified. In keeping with the idiopathic PD literature, relatively low doses of medication were used in most cases. Lastly, side effects were rarely reported. Although quetiapine and particularly clozapine may be effective and well tolerated in the treatment of monogenic PD psychosis, this review highlights the paucity of available evidence to guide clinical decision making in this context.</p>","PeriodicalId":16559,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Neuropsychiatry and Clinical Neurosciences","volume":" ","pages":"6-13"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141734404","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
