Adolescent female with withdrawal psychosis following abrupt termination of ziprasidone

Jacob, Maryann K., Ash, Peter, Craighead, W. Edward·2012·European Child & Adolescent Psychiatry

Abstract

It is widely known that discontinuation reactions can occur after neuroleptics are stopped resulting in dyskinesia through its effect on the nigrostriatal pathway. Less discussed is the concept of "supersensitivity psychosis" which has been described as a rapid onset of psychosis after a neuroleptic medication has been withdrawn. Although the concept of supersensitivity psychosis has been described with the discontinuation of some neuroleptics, it has not been described with ziprasidone. Furthermore, the following case report is the first time that this phenomenon has been described in an adolescent patient who has discontinued ziprasidone. Reasons for supersensitivity psychosis are explored in addition to suggestions about precautions about prescribing neuroleptics in young people.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • People with no history of psychosis who develop psychotic symptoms on abrupt cessation of dopamine antagonists used in a non-psychiatric context provide support for the hypothesis that dopaminergic hypersensitivity contributes to early relapse into psychosis after antipsychotic cessation.

    “People with no history of psychosis who develop psychotic symptoms on abrupt cessation of dopamine antagonists used in a non-psychiatric context (eg, breast milk stimulation or treatment of nausea) provide support for this hypothesis (table 1).”
  • Eight case reports describe psychotic symptoms arising in 13 patients with no history of psychosis after the abrupt withdrawal of dopamine antagonists.

    “Eight case reports describe psychotic symptoms arising in 13 patients with no history of psychosis after the abrupt withdrawal of dopamine antagonists (table 1).”
  • This may account for the relative ease of reductions at higher doses of antipsychotic and the difficulties in tapering at lower doses.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
