Introduction The introduction of the first antipsychotic agents in the 1950s marked a dramatic improvement in the care for individuals with schizophrenia and other forms of severe and persistent mental illness. The discovery of antipsychotic medications encouraged medical science’s more systematic investigation of the biological underpinnings of schizophrenia and the development of additional a...
And there is more, much more. If the FDA enforces these requirements, drug companies would probably not be sending around dubious articles based on bogus clinical trials, which is Waxman’s concern. The bigger risk is that physicians might not pay close enough attention to the risks of off-label use, which can be substantial. These risks come into play in connection with atypical antipsychotic a...
This article examines trends in antipsychotic medication use in a treated population of publicly funded patients with schizophrenia between 1991 and 1996.

The mechanism of action of antipsychotic drugs is mainly associated with changes in dopaminergic system. The application of antipsychotic agents simultaneously produces changes in concentrations of metabolites (e.g. kynurenic acid - KYNA, 3-hydroxykynurenine - 3-OHKYN, kynurenine - KYN) of the kynurenine pathway, the pathway engaged in glutamatergic transmission. The increase in KYNA levels in ...
Adenylate cyclase (EC 4.6.1.1), selectively stimulated by low concentrations of dopamine, has been found in the olfactory tubercle, the nucleus accumbens, and the caudate nucleus of several mammalian species. Several different classes of drugs effective in the treatment of schizophrenia (antipsychotic drugs) were potent inhibitors of the stimulation by dopamine of the enzyme from these various ...
