Clinical use of the radioreceptor assay for neuroleptics. 1980

B M Cohen, and J F Lipinski, and P Q Harris, and H G Pope, and M Friedman

The potential clinical utility of the radioreceptor assay for neuroleptics (NRRA) was examined. The NRRA was able to detect neuroleptic activity in blood specimens from patients receiving a variety of neuroleptic medications. For each medication, mean plasma neuroleptic activity was lower in patients showing a poor response to treatment than in those showing a good response. Because the range of plasma neuroleptic activities found was quite different from drug to drug, it appears that results obtained by the NRRA must be standarized for each drug.

D014150 Antipsychotic Agents Agents that control agitated psychotic behavior, alleviate acute psychotic states, reduce psychotic symptoms, and exert a quieting effect. They are used in SCHIZOPHRENIA; senile dementia; transient psychosis following surgery; or MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION; etc. These drugs are often referred to as neuroleptics alluding to the tendency to produce neurological side effects, but not all antipsychotics are likely to produce such effects. Many of these drugs may also be effective against nausea, emesis, and pruritus.
