Assessment of Monitoring and Management Practices of Antipsychotic-Induced Hyperprolactinemia at a Medical City in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia: A Retrospective Cohort Study
CONCLUSION: It is imperative to conduct a baseline check of prolactin levels before commencing any antipsychotic therapy. Similarly, routine prolactin level monitoring is recommended regardless of symptoms in patients treated with antipsychotics with a possible prolactin-raising effect. Adherence to evidence-based treatment guidelines can improve patient quality of life and therapeutic compliance.PMID:38485677 | DOI:10.2174/0115748863280407240305070905 (Source: Current Drug Safety)

A case report of LAI two injection start in a 16-year-old adolescent with severe manic episode and comorbid cannabinoid use disorder
Asian J Psychiatr. 2024 Mar 4;94:103992. doi: 10.1016/j.ajp.2024.103992. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThere is a lack of randomized clinical trials and few studies regarding long-acting injectable antipsychotics (LAIs) in adolescents. Non-adherence, aggressiveness, comorbid substance use disorder and lack of insight may represent the main reasons for starting LAIs. Hereby we describe a 16-year-old male adolescent subject with bipolar type I disorder and comorbid cannabinoid use disorder, successfully treated with two-injection start regimen of LAI aripiprazole. Two-injection start regime of aripiprazole could represent an...
