Hyperprolactinemia is a common side effect of antipsychotic treatments. Existing alternatives to resolve this problem include decreasing the antipsychotic dose or switching to a different antipsychotic agent. Nevertheless, said modifications can sometimes lead to decompensation of the patient. We report a clinical case of a female patient in whom the combined treatment of 5 mg/day of aripiprazole (5 mg/day) reversed paliperidoneinduced hyperprolactinemia within four weeks.

Introduction/objective: Schizophrenia with substance use disorder is a complex clinical condition that may increase treatment resistance. Cannabis use disorder is frequently associated with psychosis and the causal link has still to be defined. Partial D2/3 agonists may ensure limbic dopamine release normalization while avoiding reduced frontocortical dopamine release, which would contribute to negative symptoms.

We report the case of a 23-year-old man who developed orofacial dyskinesia secondary to aripiprazole whilst being treated for psychosis in the hospital. He was known to mental health services and had suffered a relapse of bipolar affective disorder. Upon cessation of aripiprazole and commencement of quetiapine, there was a rapid reversal of his movement disorder.

Background: Glutamatergic system dysfunction contributes to a full spectrum of schizophrenia-like symptoms, including the cognitive and negative symptoms that are resistant to treatment with antipsychotic drugs (APDs). Aripiprazole, an atypical APD, acts as a dopamine partial agonist, and its combination with haloperidol (a typical APD) has been suggested as a potential strategy to improve schizophrenia. Recently, an analog of aripiprazole, UNC9994, was developed.

Prolactin levels can be influenced by multiple medications primarily through the interaction with dopamine receptors which regulate its secretion. Unlike hyperprolactinemia which has a well-defined clinical phenotype, the effects of hypoprolactinemia beyond inability to lactate are incompletely understood. Recent studies have raised concerns regarding detrimental changes in glucose metabolism, sexual function and psychological profile in patients with low prolactin levels.

Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a metabolic disease that occurs during pregnancy. Herein, we investigate G protein-coupled receptor 1 (GPR1) in mediating GDM through the phosphorylation of serine/threonine kinase (AKT) pathway. Thirty pregnant SD rats were grouped into: normal pregnancy control group (NC), GDM model group, and GDM model + high-dose GPR1 antagonist treatment (GDM + Ari) group.
