Add-on Cariprazine in Patients with Long-term Clozapine Treatment and Treatment Resistant Schizophrenia: Two Cases of Psychotic Deterioration and Pisa Syndrome
An increasing number of studies deal with medical options for treatment resistant schizophrenia. If no remission can be achieved with clozapine, a combination of antipsychotics can be considered. The combination of clozapine and cariprazine is rarely studied. Cariprazine is a partial agonist on dopamine D2 and D3 receptors and a pharmaceutically rational add-on to clozapine. Stimulating D3 receptors has been linked to improved cognition and mood, with negligible extrapyramidal side effects. We present two patients with long-term treatment resistant schizophrenia receiving cariprazine and clozapine. Whereas psychotic symptoms worsened, the patients developed extrapyramidal side effects with a Pisa syndrome. The syndrome remitted after discontinuation of cariprazine. Possible explanations by pharmacodynamic interactions and drug specific receptor profiles are discussed.
期刊介绍:
Clinical Psychopharmacology and Neuroscience (Clin Psychopharmacol Neurosci) launched in 2003, is the official journal of The Korean College of Neuropsychopharmacology (KCNP), and the associate journal for Asian College of Neuropsychopharmacology (AsCNP). This journal aims to publish evidence-based, scientifically written articles related to clinical and preclinical studies in the field of psychopharmacology and neuroscience. This journal intends to foster and encourage communications between psychiatrist, neuroscientist and all related experts in Asia as well as worldwide. It is published four times a year at the last day of February, May, August, and November.
