Antipsychotic Induced Hyperprolactinemia in Schizophrenia Patients

Abstract: ÖzetSıklıkla hamilelikte meme bezinin büyümesi, laktasyon için süt sentezi ve hazırlanması gibi görevle-ri ile bilinen prolaktinin günümüzde, bu etkilerinin dışında da pek çok işleve sahip olduğu bilinmektedir. Psikiyatride sıklıkla kullanılan antipsikotikler ve antidepresanlar da hiperprolaktinemi yapabilmektedir. Özellikle tipik antipsikotiklerin ön hipofizdeki D2 reseptörlerini bloke ederek birincil olarak prolaktin seviyelerini yükselttikleri görüşü mevcuttur. Atipik antipsikotiklerin hiperprolaktinemi üze… Show more

“…When the function of the neurons in the Tuboinfundibular dopaminergic pathway extending from hypothalamus to hypophysis are inhibited by antipsychotic drugs, prolactin release increases. This situation, hyperprolactinemia, can be asymptomatic or can lead galactorrhea, amenorrhea, gynecomastia and sexual dysfunction in short term, and tumorigenesis and osteoporosis in long term (1)(2)(3)(4). These side effects can disrupt treatment compliance and lead to serious health problems in the long term (4).…”

“…Atypical antipsychotics, which have weaker D2 receptor blockade compared to the strong serotonin receptor blockade and have greater effects on the mesolimbic system than the effects on the nigrostriatal system and the tuberoinfundibular system, raise the prolactin levels less than the typical antipsychotics (1,2,5). Antipsychotic related hyperprolactionemia incidences have been reported to range from 42 to 93% for women and 18 to 72% for men (6).…”
