Abstract:
Psychoanalytic exploration of the action of psychotropic drugs has a long tradition which begins in the pioneer days of contemporary psychopharmacotherapy in 1950-ties. This exploration and publications based on them theorized about influence of neuroleptics on ego defences, id drives and intrapsychic conflicts and decrease in symptomatology as a result of action of the medication on all listed above. The paper presented is the case story about psychodynamic meaning of medication with a neuroleptic drug in a new context. The patient after a psychotic episode (paranoid type) was treated with quetiapine 600 mg per day and in the same time had an individual psychotherapy. During psychotherapy her inability to establish object stability was disclosed. In that particular intrapsychic situation the patient established a relation with an omnipotent and idealized representation of the drug. Medication was an absolutely idealized object for her one that was controllable and stabile and could not abandon her. The quality of relation with the drug was based on a primary defence mechanism like splitting, idealization and omnipotence and denial.

Drug-Receptor Interactions
Several parameters, such as the drug's affinity for its receptor and its efficacy, which is its ability to activate the receptor, determine the drug's effect on the tissue.
Pharmacovigilance
This process, termed pharmacovigilance, aims to detect, evaluate, and minimize harmful effects related to medication use. The data collection for pharmacovigilance depends on spontaneous reporting systems, where healthcare professionals or patients voluntarily report suspected ADRs.
