Malignant neuroleptic syndrome
Malignant neuroleptic syndrome is characterized by pallor, hyperthermia, rigidity of muscles, dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system, impaired consciousness. Signs of autonomic nervous system dysfunction, such as increased sweating and lability of blood pressure and pulse, may precede the onset of hyperthermia and, therefore, be early warning signs.In the case of an unexplained increase in body temperature, treatment with thiapride should be discontinued. Cause malignant Neuroleptic Syndrome remains unclear. It is assumed that its mechanism is played by the blockade of dopamine receptors in the striatum and the hypothalamus, and congenital predisposition (idiosyncrasy) is not ruled out. The development of the syndrome can be facilitated by intercurrent infection, disturbance of the water-electrolyte balance (in particularly, dehydration, hyponatremia), simultaneous administration of lithium, organic brain damage.
The elongation of the OT interval Tiapride may cause lengthening of the interval QT. It is known that this effect increases the risk of developing serious ventricular arrhythmias, such as ventricular pirouette tachycardia (see section "Side effect").
Before the appointment of therapy with neuroleptics, if the patient's condition allows, it is necessary to exclude the presence of factors, predisposing to the development of these severe rhythm disturbances (bradycardia less than 55 beats per minute, hypokalemia, hypomagnesemia, inhibition of intraventricular conduction and congenital elongated interval QT or lengthening the interval QT when using other drugs that extend the interval QT) (see the sections "Contraindications", "With caution", "Side effect").
Patients with the above risk factors,
predisposing to lengthen the interval QT, If tiaprid is needed, special care must be taken.
Hypokalemia and hypomagnesemia should be corrected before the drug is started, in addition, medical supervision, monitoring of blood electrolytes and ECG should be provided.
Extrapyramidthe syndrome With extrapyramidal syndrome, caused by antipsychotics, should be prescribed anticholinergic preparations (and not dopamine receptor agonists) (see section "Interaction with other drugs").
Stroke
In randomized clinical trials, compared with some atypical antipsychotics with placebo performed in elderly patients with dementia, there was a triple increase in the risk of developing cerebrovascular complications. The mechanism of this risk is unknown. It can not be ruled out that such a risk increases with other neuroleptics or in other populationspatients, therefore tiapride should be used with caution in patients with risk factors for stroke.
Older patients with dementia
In elderly patients with psychoses associated with dementia, in the treatment with antipsychotic drugs, there was an increase risk of death. An analysis of 17 placebo-controlled trials (mean duration over 10 weeks) showed that the majority of patients who received atypical antipsychotics had a 1.6-1.7 times greater risk of death than patients receiving placebo. In a 10-week placebo-controlled study, the incidence of fatal outcomes with atypical neuroleptics was 4.5% for these patients, and 2.6% for placebo.
Although the causes of death in clinical studies with atypical antipsychotics varied, most of the causes of death were either cardiovascular (eg, heart failure, sudden death), or infectious (eg, pneumonia) by nature. Observational studies have confirmed that, like treatment with atypical antipsychotics, treatment with conventional antipsychotic drugs can also increase mortality. The extent to which an increase in mortality may be due to an antipsychotic drug, rather than to certain features of patients, is unclear.
Venous thromboembolic oslo / ds
When using antipsychotic drugs, there have been cases of venous thromboembolic complications (WTO), sometimes with a fatal outcome (see section "Side effect"). therefore tiapride should be used with caution in patients with risk factors for developing WTO. Since patients taking antipsychotics often have acquired risk factors for developing WTO, any potential risk factors for WTO development should be identified before and during treatment with the drug Tiapridal, and during the reception should be carried out activities aimed at preventing thromboembolic complications.
Mammary cancer Tiaprid can increase the concentration of prolactin in the blood plasma. Therefore, when using tiaprid in patients who have a history of family history (including family history) of breast cancer, you should be careful (see "With caution").Such patients should be carefully monitored.
Patients with epilepsy Because, what tiapride can lower the threshold of convulsive activity, with the appointment of tiaprid to patients with epilepsy, the latter should be under strict medical supervision.
Patients with Parkinson's disease, receptor agonists of dopamine receptors Apart from exceptional cases, the drug Tiapridal should not be used in patients with Parkinson's disease. If there is an urgent need for treatment with neuroleptics patients with the disease Parkinson's, taking dopamine receptor agonists, should gradually reduce the doses of the latter until complete withdrawal (abrupt withdrawal of dopamine receptor agonists may increase the risk of developing a patient's malignant neuroleptic syndrome) (see Sections "FROM caution, "" Interaction with other drugs ").
Children
The use of thiaprid in children is not well understood. Therefore, when prescribing tiaprid, children should be careful. Due to the lack of clinical data, caution should be exercised when prescribing this medication to children.Moreover, it is recommended to check the ability of children to learn annually, since the drug can affect cognitive functions. It is necessary to regularly adjust the dose depending on thethe child's condition. Hematologic disorders When using antipsychotic drugs, including Tiapridal®, leukopenia, neutropenia, and agranulocytosis were observed. Unexplained infections or fever may be signs of hematologic disorders (see the "Side effect" section) and require an immediate hematological examination.
Ethanol
During treatment with Tiapridal Do not drink alcohol or medication containing ethanol (see the section "Interaction with le kardsgve other means and").
