•aripiprazole, haloperidol, olanzapine, quetiapine, risperidone •Carbamazepine: same efficacy w/ monotherapy vs +AP •valproate & carbamazepine particularly useful for rapid cycling & mixed episodes *NEVER USE ADs AS MONOTHERAPY (activates mania) Maintenance Therapy: typically use same regimen that was effective acutely +therapy (supportive psychotherapy, family therapy, group therapy) Lithium: MOA general idea mood stabilizer -antagonize adrenergic and DA activities while enhancing serotonergic activity MOA: inhibit 5HT/NE reuptake & 2nd messenger systems REDUCES SUICIDE RISK :) Lithium ADRs and considerations
*INEFFECTIVE FOR ACUTE MANIA, better for bipolar depression ADRs: nausea, fatigue, ataxia, dizziness, sedation, back pain ADRs (significant): •aseptic meningitis (rare), blood dyscrasias (agranulocytosis, pancytopenia) •hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis(s/sxs: fever, rash, hepatosplenomegaly) BOXED WARNING: SJS/TEN/DRESS (↓ valproate levels Pregnancy: increased risk for cleft lip/palate Carbamazepine
monotherapy, mixed episodes, rapid-cycling Oxcarbazepine: same efficacy, better tolerance, less r/o rash & hepatotoxicity, monitor Na levels ADRs: N/V/C, ataxia, dizziness, sedation, blurred vision ADRs (significant): •hematologic (aplastic anemia, leukopenia, thrombocytopenia) •cardiac (↑ risk of cardiac failure, tachycardia) •hepatotoxicity (↑ AST/ALT, GGT, alk phos), SIADH & hyponatremia (dose-related) BOXED WARNINGS: SJS/TEN & HLA-B1502 (screen Asian), aplastic anemia & agranulocytosis Pregnancy: teratogenic (NTDs, craniofacial abnormalities, CV malformations) DIs: CYP3A4, 2CP, 1A2 inducer, CYP 3A4 substrate (autoinduces metabolism) •autoinduction: may need dose ↑ in beginning, measure at 0, 3, 6, & 9wks •CYP inhibitors ↑ CBZ levels: risk toxicity (grapefruit juice, protease inhibitors, azoles) •CBZ ↓ levels of CYP450 (BDZs, statins, buspirone, venlafaxine, mirtazapine, Haldol) •synergistic w/lithium for refractory bipolar, but neurotoxicity has occurred w/ combo
*combo of meds + CBT = most success Treatment-Resistant: TCAs, MAOIs, atypical APs, stimulants, carbamazepine, ECT Pharm: should give drug≥6wks at maximum dose before switching •Depressed mood majority of the day on most days lasting ≥2YRS (1y in children/adolescents) •never been without symptoms >2MO at a time •never had manic/hypomanic episode Dx Tx Persistent depressive disorder (Dysthymia) combo treatment w/ psychotherapy & pharmacology more efficacious than either alone Pharmacotherapy: SSRIs, SNRIs, TCAs, MAOIs Psychotherapy: interpersonal, cognitive, insight-oriented
