Chemistry:List of long-term side effects of antipsychotics
This article needs more medical references for verification or relies too heavily on primary sources, specifically: Unsourced list of side effects, needs references. (March 2017) |
This is a general list of long-term side effects associated with Antipsychotic (neuroleptic) medication.
Many patients will not develop these side effects, although there is still a significant possibility of risks associated with antipsychotic usage.
The percentage of patients affected by side effects like Tardive dyskinesia is significantly high and estimated to be a 20-50% prevalence.[1][2]
Overprescription of antipsychotics among seniors with dementia is evident[3][4][5][6][self-published source?] in spite of side effects.
List of potential long-term side effects
- Alzheimer's disease,[7][8]
- Akathisia
- Anhedonia
- Anxiety
- Cerebral atrophy[9][10]
- Cognitive dysfunction[11][12][13]
- Early dementia and dementia [14][15]
- Dementia worsening[16][17]
- Diabetes[18]
- Gynecomastia[19]
- Hyperglycemia
- Hyperprolactinemia causes impotence in males.[20]
- Hyponatremia low sodium blood levels.
- Metabolic syndrome
- Neuroleptic-induced deficit syndrome
- Neuroleptic malignant syndrome
- Oculogyric crisis
- Parkinsonism
- Somnolence
- Tardive dyskinesia[21]
- Weight gain[22]
There has been a study that suggests antipsychotics are associated with possible cortical reconfiguration and gray matter loss,[23] but correlational data also suggests patients who consume antipsychotics, like people with schizophrenia, tend to engage in unhealthy habits like smoking which may exacerbate gray matter loss.[24]
There are very few studies on healthy controls. There are also few studies of long term effects on animal controls. There are no studies on the long-term effects of polypharmacy (prescribing more than one anti-psychotic at a time), although the practice has been widespread.
