概括
选择性血清素再吸收抑制剂 (SSRI) 与兴奋剂相结合并没有显著增加年轻人的自杀风险. 在这个人群中,抑郁症诊断是自杀思想和行为 (STB) 的更强有力的预测因素.
科学领域:
- 儿童和青少年精神病学 儿童和青少年精神病学
- 药理学 药理学是指药理学的学科.
- 心理健康研究 心理健康研究
背景情况:
- 选择性血清素再吸收抑制剂 (SSRI) 与年轻人的自杀风险增加有关.
- 对于SSRI和兴奋剂对儿科患者自杀风险的综合影响尚不清楚.
研究的目的:
- 调查SSRI和兴奋剂联合使用与儿童和青少年的自杀思想和行为 (STB) 之间的联系.
- 为了确定其他因素,如抑郁症,是否会影响这种关系.
主要方法:
- 在儿童精神病诊所进行的回顾性队列研究 (2017-2020年).
- 包括349名年龄在6至21岁的患者,他们服用了处方兴奋剂或兴奋剂加上SSRI.
- 后勤回归分析了药物和STB之间的关联,并对共变量进行调整.
主要成果:
- 在研究队列中,STB的患病率为5.7%.
- 未经调整的分析显示,SSRI和兴奋剂联合使用时,性病风险更高.
- 在根据年龄,性别,焦虑和抑郁症进行调整后,联合药物和性病之间的关联减弱了 (OR: 1.3).

Antidepressant Drugs: Tricyclics, SSRIs, and SNRIs
384
Tricyclic Antidepressants (TCAs), including Desipramine (Norpramin), Imipramine (Tofranil), Clomipramine (Anafranil), and Amitriptyline (Elavil), inhibit serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake and also block other receptors. They are used for depression, pain conditions, and insomnia. Common adverse effects include anticholinergic effects, sedation, orthostatic hypotension, and weight gain. They have a narrow therapeutic window and so require plasma-level monitoring. Abrupt discontinuation can...

Antidepressant Drugs: MAOIs and Other Agents
228
Atypical antidepressants, including bupropion (Wellbutrin), mirtazapine (Remeron), nefazodone (Serzone), trazodone (Desyrel), and vilazodone (Viibryd), offer unique mechanisms of action. Bupropion weakly inhibits dopamine and norepinephrine reuptake, aiding depression treatment and smoking cessation, with a low risk of sexual dysfunction. Mirtazapine enhances serotonin and norepinephrine neurotransmission, leading to sedation, increased appetite, and weight gain. As a result, it helps treat...

Antidepressant Drugs: Overview
477
Antidepressant drugs are a class of medications primarily used for treating various mood disorders, including major depression, anxiety disorders, and other related conditions. These medicines work by modulating the neurotransmitter balance within the brain, alleviating depressive symptoms. Antidepressants can be broadly categorized into several groups according to their mechanism of action and chemical structure: Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIs), Serotonin-Norepinephrine...

Drug Therapy

The advent of drug therapy has profoundly shaped modern mental health care, providing targeted treatments for a range of psychological disorders. Psychotherapeutic drugs, classified into antianxiety, antidepressant, and antipsychotic medications, address symptoms across anxiety disorders, mood disorders, and schizophrenia. While these medications have transformed patient outcomes, they require careful management due to their potential side effects and limitations.

Electroconvulsive Therapy
39
Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), or shock therapy, remains a critical biomedical intervention for severe, treatment-resistant depression. While its origins can be traced back to Hippocrates' observations that malaria-induced convulsions alleviated mental illness, modern ECT has evolved significantly from its earlier, more primitive applications. First introduced in 1938 by Ugo Cerletti and his colleagues, ECT involves inducing controlled seizures using electrical currents. In its early...

Drugs Affecting Neurotransmitter Release or Uptake
1.1K
Certain drugs can affect how neurotransmitters called catecholamines, are released or taken back up in the adrenergic neuron. They can have different effects on the body's sympathetic transmission. Reserpine, a natural compound found in the Rauwolfia shrub, blocks a transporter called vesicular monoamine transporter (VMAT), which leads to a buildup of catecholamines in the cell and reduces sympathetic transmission. Another drug called guanethidine works in multiple ways, including blocking...
