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.

Rabbit syndrome (RS), characterized by fine, rapid, rhythmic movements along the mouth's vertical axis, is typically linked to prolonged antipsychotic medication use. Emerging evidence suggests newer antipsychotics' involvement in RS, prompting investigation into its association with long-acting injectable antipsychotics (LAIs) for schizophrenia or bipolar disorder. We report a case of RS observed in a patient diagnosed with bipolar I disorder and treated with Abilify Maintena, highlighting the importance of vigilance in monitoring adverse effects.

The pupillary reflex is a complex physiological response involving both the eye and associated neural pathways. Relative afferent pupillary defects (RAPDs) can present due to various underlying pathologies, yet their occurrence in serotonin syndrome has been rarely documented. This report details the case of a 21-year-old non-binary individual with a history of bipolar disorder who presented to the emergency department following a polypharmacy overdose, including significant ingestion of sertraline, aripiprazole, and buspirone.

Olanzapine, a second-generation antipsychotic widely used for schizophrenia, is primarily known for its efficacy in managing both positive and negative symptoms. While its metabolic side effects are well-documented, hematologic complications such as thrombocytopenia are rare and often underrecognized. A 30-year-old Middle Eastern male with a longstanding history of schizophrenia developed persistent thrombocytopenia after several years of olanzapine use, with platelet counts consistently below the normal range.

Articular cartilage has a limited regenerative capacity, resulting in poor spontaneous healing of damaged tissue. Despite various scientific efforts to enhance cartilage repair, no single method has yielded satisfactory results. With rising drug development costs, drug repositioning has emerged as a viable alternative.
