What Are The Options for Treating Excessive Salivation?Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Discussion Drooling, excessive salivation, hypersalivation, or sialorrhea can be a big problem for children. It can cause wet clothing necessitating bibs or multiple changes of clothing. It can cause dermatitis of the face, neck and chest, with possible skin breakdown and/or possible secondary infection. Sialorrhea can also potentiate the spread of common infections to others though direct or indirect contact with the saliva. It can also cause impaired social interaction as noted above. Therefore it is a problem that should be taken seriously and treated as necessary. Sialorrhea is generally considered abnormal if it occu...

[Articles] Double-Blind Comparison of First- and Second-Generation Antipsychotics in Early-Onset Schizophrenia and Schizo-affective Disorder: Findings From the Treatment of Early-Onset Schizophrenia Spectrum Disorders (TEOSS) StudyEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
CONCLUSIONS: Risperidone and olanzapine did not demonstrate superior efficacy over molindone for treating early-onset schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder. Adverse effects were frequent but differed among medications. The results question the nearly exclusive use of second-generation antipsychotics to treat early-onset schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder. The safety findings related to weight gain and metabolic problems raise important public health concerns, given the widespread use of second-generation antipsychotics in youth for nonpsychotic disorders.

Interaction of cocaine-, benztropine-, and gbr12909-like compounds with wildtype and mutant human dopamine transporters: molecular features that differentially determine antagonist binding properties.Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
This study furthers the concept of using DAT mutants to differentiate cocaine-like inhibitors from atypical inhibitors in vitro. Further studies of the molecular features that define inhibitor-transporter interaction could lead to the development of DAT inhibitors with differential clinical utility.

Azacitidine-Associated Hyperthermia and Interstitial Pneumonitis in a Patient with Myelodysplastic SyndromeEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
We describe a 55-year-old woman who was treated with azacitidine for myelodysplastic syndrome and experienced hyperthermia that was not attributable to other causes. The patient's treatment course was further complicated by interstitial pneumonitis and hypoxic respiratory failure that ultimately led to acute respiratory distress syndrome. Hyperthermia develops when discord occurs between metabolic heat production and heat dissipation. The process of temperature regulation can be altered by drugs such as succinylcholine, phenothiazines, monoamine oxidase inhibitors, atropine, benztropine, antihistamines, cocaine, Ecstasy, a...

Objective To report a case of fatal exertional heat stroke associated with the use of zuclopenthixol, quetiapine and benztropine. Case Summary A 36-year-old male with a history of schizophrenia and bipolar disease was working as a roofer during the third day of a heat wave. His medications included zuclopenthixol, quetiapine, benztropine, carbamazepine and levothyroxine. He developed loss of consciousness late in the day and presented to hospital with a Glasgow Coma Scale 3 and a rectal temperature of 42.20C. He progressed to severe multiple organ dysfunction and asystole, and expired the following morning. Neuroleptic...

Role of calcium-independent phospholipase A2 in cortex striatum thalamus cortex circuitry–enzyme inhibition causes vacuous chewing movements in ratsEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Conclusions These results suggest an important role for iPLA2 in the cortex–striatum–thalamus–cortex circuitry. It is postulated that VCM induced by iPLA2 inhibition may be a model of human parkinsonian tremor.

Benztropine pretreatment does not affect responses to acute cocaine administration in human volunteersEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
This study of one of the tropane-ring analogs that is approved for human use suggests this compound does not alter cocaine-induced effects, but just as importantly, does not produce any adverse behavioral or physiological effects. The exact therapeutic application of benztropine as a possible adjunct treatment for cocaine abuse in humans require further exploration. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Levomepromazine versus chlorpromazine in treatment-resistant schizophrenia: a double-blind randomized trial.Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
CONCLUSION: LMP and CPZ may be useful in the management of TRS. A modest advantage of LMP compared with CPZ was seen in longitudinal analysis. High doses of neuroleptics may contribute to TRS; reduction of neuroleptics to modest or moderate doses should be considered before categorizing a patient as treatment resistant.
