Long-term effects of novel atypical antipsychotic drugs on monoamine transporters are unknown. We compared labeling of dopamine (DAT) and serotonin (SERT) transporter proteins in subregions of rat corpus striatum by quantitative autoradiography with [(3)H]2-beta-carbomethoxy-3-beta-[4'-iodophenyl]tropane ([(3)H]beta-CIT) and [(3)H]paroxetine after 28 days of continuous subcutaneous infusion of olanzapine, quetiapine, risperidone, or vehicle controls. Drug treatment did not significantly alter the abundance of either transporter type in caudate-putamen or nucleus accumbens, indicating that transporter proteins required to inactivate synaptically released dopamine and serotonin resist adaptations to long-term treatment with novel antipsychotics that affect neurotransmission by these amines.

Aim: This study aimed to explore the comparative risks for dystonia among different second-generation antipsychotics (SGAs), the influence of sex, and the relationship between the time-to-onset of dystonia and its outcomes.

Methods: We analyzed data from the Japanese Adverse Drug Event Report database from April 2004 to November 2023. Cases involving oral SGAs, excluding clozapine, were extracted.

Sexual dysfunctions (SD) are common and debilitating side effects of antipsychotics. The current study analyzes the occurrence of antipsychotic-related SD using data from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS). FAERS was queried for sexual dysfunction adverse events (encoded by 35 different MedDRA preferred terms) secondary to amisulpride, aripiprazole, chlorprothixene, clozapine, haloperidol, loxapine, olanzapine, pipamperone, quetiapine, risperidone, and ziprasidone from 2000 to 2023.

Background: The United States Food and Drug Administration approved 6 atypical antipsychotics for pediatric treatment of schizophrenia. However, little has been published on the effectiveness of these medications in the acute treatment setting of adolescents with psychosis. Since the clinical uncertainty and poor prognosis proceeding the early onset of schizophrenia has a significant impact on a child's development, there is a critical need for evidence-based data on this population.
