Background: A 12-week randomized controlled trial demonstrated that brexpiprazole is efficacious for treating agitation in patients with dementia due to Alzheimer's disease.
Objective: To assess the long-term safety and tolerability of brexpiprazole for the treatment of agitation associated with dementia due to Alzheimer's disease.
Methods: This 12-week, active-treatment (oral brexpiprazole 2 or 3 mg/day) extension trial ran from October 2018-September 2022 at 66 sites in Europe/US.
The long-term safety of droxidopa for the treatment of symptomatic neurogenic orthostatic hypotension in patients with Parkinson disease, pure autonomic failure, multiple system atrophy, or nondiabetic autonomic neuropathy was evaluated in a phase 3, multinational, open-label study in patients who previously participated in a double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial of droxidopa. A total of 350 patients received droxidopa 100 to 600 mg three times daily. Mean duration of droxidopa exposure was 363 days (range, 2-1133 days).

Methods: Patients receiving a stable oral dosage of carbamazepine were switched to an intravenous (IV) carbamazepine formulation solubilized in a cyclodextrin matrix (at a 70% dosage conversion) for either a 15- or a 30-min infusion every 6 h for up to 7 days and then switched back. A subset of patients who tolerated 15-min infusions also received 2- to 5-min (rapid) infusions.
