what use for atropine OD
physistigmine (anti CE)
Doxepin
TCA
general toxicity of antipsych
EPS, sedation, endo, SE from blocking muscarinic, alpha and His R
Topiramate
for partial sz only,
mech: block Na channels, increase GABA action
ex MAOI used in PD,
selegiline, selective MAO B inhibitor
SE Lithium (4)
tremor, hypothyroid, polyuria (nephrogenic DI), teratogen.
narrow therapeutic range requires close monitor serum levels
serotonin syndrome
SSRI + MAOI (hyperthermia, mscl rigidity, CVS collapse)
advantages of atypical anti psych
useful for + and - sx
fewer EPS, antichol
valproic acid
used in t/c sz and absence sz,
mech increase Na channel inactiv, incr GABA concentration
selegiline, mech, use, SE
used in PD as adjunct to Ldopa, inhibits MAO-B increasing availability of DA,
SE: may enhance adverse effects of L-dopa
