Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors(SSRIs), as haloperidol, ore metabolized in the cytochrome P450IID6. They can cause inhibition of metabolism of antipsychotics to elevate the serum level of antipsychotics and exacerbate the extrapyramidal symptoms when co-administered with antipsychotics. Among these SSRIs, there ore a few studies about paroxetine compared to fluoxetine or sertraline. In this study, we have intended to know the drug interaction of paroxetine and haloperidol when co-administered two drugs for the chronic schizophrenics by assessing the changes of positive, negative symptoms and extrapyramidal symptoms. for this purpose, we selected 29 subjects, the chronic schizophrenics with no physical problems. They were under maintenance therapy of haloperidol. They ore randomly assigned to placebo group(n=12) and drug group(n=17) by using double blind method. And then, placebo or paroxetine 20mg were administered to the subjects of each groups during 8 week period. We have assessed their psychopathology and extrapyramidal symptoms using Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale(PANSS), Hamilton Rating Scale lor Depression(HRSD), Simpson-Angus Scale at 0, 2, 4, 6, 8 weeks and serum haloperidol, reduced haloperidol levels at 0, 4, 8 weeks during the period. The results ore analysed by using repeated measure MANOVA. 27 subjects have completed the study during 8 weeks. among the subjects, 1) PANSS, HRSD ; no significant difference between groups. 2) Simpson-Angus Scale ; no significant change according to the time and no significant difference between the groups(no group and time effect). 3) Haloperidol and reduced haloperidol level ; no significant change. When co-administered paroxetine and haloperidol, there ore no significant changes of the psychopothology and no significant changes of the extrapyramidal symptoms. In this result, paroxetine seems to be not to affect the metabolism of haloperidol.

정상뇌압수두증은 보행장애, 요실금 및 치매 등의 전형적인 세 가지 증상 외에도 추체외로 증상과 다양한 신경심리 증상이 동반될 수 있다. 이 사례는 불안과 정동증상으로 치료 중 보행장애와 요실금 증상을 보였던 46세 여자 환자에서 항파킨슨 약물의 사용과 기존 정신과 치료 약물의 중단에도 불구하고 증상의 호전이 없었으나, 뇌 컴퓨터 단층 촬영상 뇌실의 확장 소견이 보였고 시험적 뇌척수액 배액에 의해서 수일 내에 증상들이 극적으로 호전되어 정상뇌압수두증을 감별해야 했던 경우이다. 뚜렷한 대뇌 실질의 위축 소견이 없으나 뇌실이 확장되어 있을 경우 추체외로 증상과 신경심리 증상이 있을 경우 정상뇌압수두증의 전형적 세 가지 증상을 보이지 않는다 하더라도 정상뇌압수두증의 가능성을 고려해서 시험적 뇌척수액 배액 등의 시술이 진단과 치료에 도움이 될 수 있음을 보여주는 사례라고 생각된다.

The genetically determined CYP2D6 activity may be considered to be associated with antipsychotic induced extrapyramidal side effects with interindividual variation. Genetic polymorphism of CYP2D6 was determined by polymerase chain reaction(PCR) and MspI restriction fragment length polymorphisms(RFLP) for 194 schizophrenics. Subjects with a 334bp band were classified a1a1, those with 229bp and 105bp bands a2a2, and those with all three bands a1-a2. We did not identify schizophrenic subject with poor metabolizer. 194 schizophrenic patients previously treated neuroleptic medication, were assessed by Extrapyramidal Symptom Rating Scale(ESRS).The cases were composed of 33 akathisia, 47 parkinsonism, 21 tardive dyskinesia. These results are similar to the previous understanding that the poor metabolizer is very rare in Orientals compared to Caucasians, therefore, it considered that CYP2D6 genotypes have maybe no association with schizophrenia and extrapyramidal side effects in Koreans.

During the past decade the use of epidural opioids for treatment of chronic as well as postoperative pain has increased Epidural droperidol significantly reduced the side effects of epidural morphine without any appreciable toxicity, except possibly sedation. The purpose of this study was to assess the side effects and potentiation of analgesia of epidural morphine by dose-related droperidol. The results were as follows: 1) Duration of analgesia and pain score: There was no significant difference between morphine and dose-related droperidol groups. 2) Pruritus: Droperidol did not affect the incidence of pruritus with epidural morphine (P>0.05). 3) Nausea and vomiting: Significantly fewer patients experienced nausea and vomiting (16.7%) with droperidol 2.5mg(P<0.001). 4) Hypotensive episode Hypotension occurred in the groups with droperidol 1.25 mg (27. 8%) and 2.5mg(33.3%). 5) Sedation: It there was increased severity and incidence of sedation with dose related epidural droperidol. 6) Respiratory depression: There was no patient with respiratory depression in the morphine or droperidol group. 7) Extrapyramidal symptoms and others: There was no extrapyramidal symptom in the group with morphine and 0.25 mg droperidol, but 3 patients in the group with l.25 mg droperidol and 5 patients in the group with 2.5 mg droperidol how extrapyramidal symptoms. One patient in droperidol 2.5 mg developed suspicious NMS. It is suggested that the use of epidural droperidol to reduce the side effects of morphine may not be appropriate.

A series of typical (chlorpromazine, haloperidol and thioridazine) and atypical (risperidone, quetiapine, clozapine and olanzapine) antipsychotics were tested for effects on integrated bioenergetic functions of isolated rat liver mitochondria. Polarographic measurement of oxygen consumption in freshly isolated mitochondria showed that electron transfer activity at respiratory complex I is inhibited by chlorpromazine, haloperidol, risperidone, and quetiapine, but not by clozapine, olanzapine, or thioridazine. Chlorpromazine and thioridazine act as modest uncouplers of oxidative phosphorylation. The typical neuroleptics inhibited NADH-coenzyme Q reductase in freeze-thawed mitochondria, which is a direct measure of complex I enzyme activity. The inhibition of NADH-coenzyme Q reductase activity by the atypicals risperidone and quetiapine was 2-4 fold less than that for the typical neuroleptics. Clozapine and olanzapine had only slight effects on NADH-coenzyme Q reductase activity, even at 200 $\mu$ M. The relative potencies of these neuroleptic drugs as inhibitors of mitochondrial bioenergetic function is similar to their relative potencies as risk factors in the reported incidence of extrapyramidal symptoms, including tardive dyskinesia (TD). This suggests that compromised bioenergetic function may be involved in the cellular pathology underlying TD.

The neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS) is an uncommon but dangerous complication of treatment with neuroleptic drugs. This syndrome is characterized by autonomic dysfunction, extrapyramidal dysfunction, and hyperthermia. NMS seems more frequent with parenteral neuroleptic use. We report a patient in whom suspicious NMS was developed in the ward after epidural administration of 2.5mg of droperidol with morphine for postoperative pain control. Extrapyramidal symptoms and autonomic dysfunction were treated with diazepam, but temperature was spontaneously decreased after 16 hours and 40 minute after receiving epidural droperidol.

Objectives : Schizophreniform Disorder can be put as pre-stage of Schizophrenia, which is known as one of the most common mental disorder. Many studies have shown that Antipsychotic Treatment for Schizophrenia has many side effects such as EPS(Extrapyramidal Symptoms), and recently it has been found that even Non-Antipsychotic Treatment has side effects such as weight gain. This clinical study was aimed to search the therapeutic effects of Oriental medicine in Schizophreniform Disorder, and in reducing the side effects of Western medicine. Methods : We treated the patient diagnosed as Schizophreniform Disorder, whose chief complaint was auditory hallucination, with herbal medicine and acupuncture. Improvement in her clinical symptoms were recorded daily. We also used Emotional Freedom Techniques to control her anxiety effectively. Results : Auditory hallucination and extrapyramidal symptoms such as tremor disappeared. The patient's anxiety was controlled by Emotional Freedom Techniques effectively. Conclusions : From the above results, we conclude that Oriental medical treatment is effective in treating clinical symptoms of Schizophreniform Disorder, as well as in reducing the side effects of Western medicine.

Going back to basics prior to mentioning the use of antipsychotics in patients with pain, the International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP) definition of pain can be summarized as an unpleasant experience, composed of sensory experience caused by actual tissue damage and/or emotional experience caused by potential tissue damage. Less used than antidepressants, antipsychotics have also been used for treating this unpleasant experience as adjuvant analgesics without sufficient evidence from research. Because recently developed atypical antipsychotics reduce the adverse reactions of extrapyramidal symptoms, such as acute dystonia, pseudo-parkinsonism, akathisia, and tardive dyskinesia caused by typical antipsychotics, they are expected to be used more frequently in various painful conditions, while increasing the risk of metabolic syndromes (weight gain, diabetes, and dyslipidemia). Various antipsychotics have different neurotransmitter receptor affinities for dopamine (D), 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), adrenergic (${\alpha}$), histamine (H), and muscarinic (M) receptors. Atypical antipsychotics antagonize transient, weak $D_2$ receptor bindings with strong binding to the $5-HT_{2A}$ receptor, while typical antipsychotics block long-lasting, tight $D_2$ receptor binding. On the contrary, antidepressants in the field of pain management also block the reuptake of similar receptors, mainly on the 5-HT and, next, on the norepinephrine, but rarely on the D receptors. Antipsychotics have been used for treating positive symptoms, such as delusion, hallucination, disorganized thought and behavior, perception disturbance, and inappropriate emotion, rather than the negative, cognitive, and affective symptoms of psychosis. Therefore, an antipsychotic may be prescribed in pain patients with positive symptoms of psychosis during or after controlling all sensory components.
