12. Antipsychotics Or neuroleptics

13. Chlorpromazine History -Was the first antipsychotic used -Around 1952- French doctor -Revolutionary -Only existed electroconvulsive therapy and psychotherapy -Used in anesthesia -Sedative effects

14. Antipsychotics: Chlorpromazine cont.

15. Chlorpromazine Mechanism of Action -Dopamine -EPS -Histamine -Weight gain -Sedative effect -Alpha 1 adrenergic - orthostatic hypotension

16. EPS: extrapyramidal symptoms Dystonias Involuntary convulsion of muscles Development of Parkinson’s syndrome Dyskinesias Involuntary body of facial movements 20% eventually developed

17. Phenothiazine-Derived Drugs All are derivatives from the phenothiazine tricyclic compound 3 different classes Aliphatic Piperidines Piperazines

18. Aliphatic Phenothiazines Chlorpromazine Promazine Triflupromazine

19. Piperidine Phenothiazines Mesoridazine Thioridazine

20. Piperazine Phenothiazines Fluphenazine Perphenazine

21. Butyrophenones Haloperidol Benperidol

22. Problems with Typical Antipsychotics Solves no negative symptoms EPS are very troublesome Glutamatergic vs. Dopaminergic

23. Discovery of Clozapine History Comparison study of angles between anti-depressants and psychotics The group found clozapine. Consequently didn’t work with the theory In clinical trails Clozapine didn’t exhibit EPS Also solved many negative symptoms

24. Clozapine cont. Slow acceptance Precaution Agranulocytosis

25. Clozapine Mechanism of Action Weaker D2 receptor binding Stronger serotonin antagonist Postsynaptic 5-HT2 receptors JUST LIKE CHLORPROMAZINE BECAME A MODEL OF ATYPICAL ANTIPSYCHOTICS TODAY

26. Other atypical antipsychotics Risperadome – less harmful, weaker affinity for D2

27. Other atypical antipsychotics cont. Olanzapine- much less is needed 100 fold stronger antagonist alpha 2 andrenergic

28. Third Generation Antipsychotics Aripiprazole (Abilify) Partial agonist Partial 5HT1 receptor

31. Questions 1.What are the biggest differences that separate a typical from an atypical antipsychotic? 2.Why isn’t clozapine in the medical market today? 3.Draw one drug from each of the three different types of phenothiazines and point out what makes each structurally different. 4.What is the main receptor that had been related to psychosis and discuss how this idea is changing.
