Nervous system neuroleptic malignant syndrome

Nervous system Neuroleptic malignant syndrome is described with aripiprazole in an adolescent with a history of impulsive, disorganised and bizarre behaviour [91 ]. 

Neuroleptic malignant syndrome is a condition of increased muscle tone, hyporthermia, delirium and dysregulation of the autonomic nervous system which has a significant mortality. 

The presentation of neuroleptic malignant syndrome with clozapine can be different from that associated with traditional neuroleptic drugs (SEDA-28, 66), and the authors of a recent report have pointed out the differential diagnosis with heat stroke, a medical emergency with the two cardinal features of raised core body temperature (40° C) and central nervous system dysfunction, which is fatal in up to 50% of cases (205).

Nervous system Aripiprazole has been previously associated with neuroleptic malignant syndrome but with doubts about the validity of the diagnoses. However, postmarketing pharmacovigilance schemes in Australia have collected a higher proportion of cases of neuroleptic malignant syndrome with aripiprazole compared with the total number of reports received for... 

Nervous System Parkinsonism was present in 46% of 150 elderly patients being treated with haloperidol and xmrelated to plasma concentrations or duration of use [151 ]. Two cases of neuroleptic-induced catatonia following the administration of intravenous haloperidol are described both patients recovered following discontinuation of haloperidol [152 ]. A case of neuroleptic malignant syndrome in a 48-year-old male is reported with index exposure to intravenous haloperidol that resolved on discontinuation [153 ]. Obsessive-compulsive symptoms are associated with a number of SGAs particularly clozapine however a case report describes the development of obsessive-compulsive symptoms in a learning disability patient treated with haloperidol [154 ]. 

Nervous system A case of neuroleptic malignant syndrome attributed to paliperidone is reported [194 ].
