Trifluoperazine-Induced Angioedema
نویسندگان
چکیده
Angioedema is a serious adverse drug reaction that can rarely be associated with trifluoperazine treatment. We present the case of a 44-year-old male with an established diagnosis of schizoaffective disorder, for which trifluoperazine therapy was considered. He presented to the emergency department with bilateral lower limb oedematous painful erythematous swelling that eased off completely when trifluoperazine was stopped. The possibility of allergic reaction, such as angioedema, should always be kept in mind by psychiatrists and mental health professionals when prescribing trifluoperazine antipsychotic.

متن کاملTrifluoperazine-Induced Cholestatic Jaundice
Liver injury occurs with many drugs; therefore, a thorough work up is important for establishing the diagnosis. We report a case of trifluoperazine-induced cholestatic jaundice. A 44-year old male with schizoaffective disorder developed an increase in liver enzymes and jaundice after starting treatment with trifluoperazine. Workup for other potential etiologies was negative.
متن کاملCa(2+)-induced folding and aggregation of skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum calsequestrin. The involvement of the trifluoperazine-binding site.
Calsequestrin is an intermediate affinity, high capacity Ca(2+)-binding protein found in the lumen of the sarcoplasmic reticulum of both skeletal and cardiac muscle cells. Previous sequence analysis suggested that calsequestrin may contain a hydrophobic binding site for the drug trifluoperazine, a site shared by the calmodulin family and shown to play a role in calmodulin/calmodulin receptor in...

The effects of trifluoperazine and verapamil on bradykinin- and des-Arg(9)-bradykinin induced responses of isolated rat duodenum and guinea-pig ileum were investigated to elucidate post-bradykinin receptor events. Verapamil and trifluoperazine inhibited bradykinin induced relaxations and contractions and des-Arg(9)- bradykinin induced contractions in rat duodenum. Bradykinin induced contraction...
متن کاملInhibition by trifluoperazine of glycogenolytic effects of phenylephrine, vasopressin, and angiotensin II.
The effects of trifluoperazine on the activation of glycogenolysis by various hormones were studied in perfused rat liver. Trifluoperazine significantly inhibited glycogenolytic effect of phenylephrine and angiotensin II by lowering maximal response, and that of vasopressin by shifting the dose-response curve to the right, while alpha-antagonist phentolamine was inhibitory only to phenylephrine...
