The diagnosis of Bipolar Disorder should be firm before initiating medications. • The lowest effective dose should be used, and periodic reviews should assess for dose reductions, if appropriate. 1 Rodriguez-Cabezas, L. and C. Clark (2018). "Psychiatric Emergencies in Pregnancy and Postpartum." Clinical obstetrics and gynecology 61(3): 615-627. 4 • Patients should be monitored closely for emergent side effects, with a low threshold for medication changes should metabolic side effects develop. 3 – Geriatric Many patients with Bipolar Disorder experience a change in cycling as they age, with cycles generally becoming more frequent and symptoms becoming less intense, often with an increase in manic or hypomanic symptoms relative to depressive symptoms • Medication doses often need to be adjusted to account for changes in factors such as physiology and bioavailability. • Medication side effects may cause more impairment and risk as patients age. • Assessment for dose reduction should occur frequently in this population. o Atypical antipsychotics medications pose an increased risk of cardiovascular mortality. • Psycho-socio-spiritual supports are very important for this population. 4 – Anxiety Disorders Patients with co-occurring Bipolar Disorder and anxiety disorders may experience unique challenges, as their anxiety symptoms may benefit from the use of antidepressants, however their bipolar disorder may become more difficult to manage with the use of antidepressants. • Generally, patients with these co-occurring issues are best served by treating their anxiety without the use of antidepressants. o Consider trying various psychotherapies, relaxation techniques/exercises, EMDR, hypnosis, acupuncture, etc • If an antidepressant is used, clinical practice suggests that SSRI’s or buspirone are the safest options. • SNRI’s appear to present a higher risk of conversion to mania than SSRI’s and should be used with more caution. • TCA’s present a high enough risk to be contraindicated. • Benzodiazepines present no risk of conversion to mania and can be helpful in managing manic symptoms, but they should be used with the usual precautions concerning tolerance/addiction issues. 5 – ADHD Patients with both ADHD and Bipolar Disorder also experience unique challenges, as their ADHD symptoms may benefit from the use of stimulants, however: • Bipolar disorder may become more difficult to manage with the use of stimulants. • Generally, those with these co-occurring issues are best served treating their ADHD without the use of stimulants. o Instead, non-pharmacologic treatments for ADHD should be considered, including behavioral therapies, cognitive behavioral therapy, occupational therapy, increasing physical activity, increasing “green time,” biofeedback, acupuncture, etc. • However, if a stimulant is used, clinical practice suggests that it be used at the lowest dose necessary. 5 • While atomoxetine and buproprion may present a slightly lower risk of conversion to mania than stimulants. o They should be used with caution, as they also carry a risk of conversion to mania. 6 - Substance Use More than 50% of patients with Bipolar Disorder are also diagnosed with a substance use disorder (reference?) and many symptoms of substance intoxication or withdrawal mimic symptoms of mania or depression. • Diagnosis and treatment of Bipolar Disorder in this context often proves difficult. • In general, a diagnosis of Bipolar Disorder should be made only if symptoms (recent or historical) occurred during a period of sobriety lengthy enough that symptoms could not be attributed solely to substance intoxication or withdrawal. • If no such period of sobriety exists, a detailed chronology plotting substance use intensity and affective symptom intensity may be able to establish a connection (or lack thereof) between the 2 issues, thus clarifying diagnoses. • While clarifying diagnosis, consider using non-medication treatments for substance use as these treatments often overlap. • Once a diagnosis is established, medications should be chosen so as to balance clinical effectiveness while minimizing substance-medication interactions.

  • The Use of Central Nervous System Active Drugs During Pregnancy
    Pharmaceuticals 2013, 6, 1221-1286; doi:10.3390/ph6101221 OPEN ACCESS pharmaceuticals ISSN 1424-8247 www.mdpi.com/journal/pharmaceuticals Review The Use of Central Nervous System Active Drugs During Pregnancy Bengt Källén 1,*, Natalia Borg 2 and Margareta Reis 3 1 Tornblad Institute, Lund University, Biskopsgatan 7, Lund SE-223 62, Sweden 2 Department of Statistics, Monitoring and Analyses, National Board of Health and Welfare, Stockholm SE-106 30, Sweden; E-Mail: [email protected] 3 Department of Medical and Health Sciences, Clinical Pharmacology, Linköping University, Linköping SE-581 85, Sweden; E-Mail: [email protected] * Author to whom correspondence should be addressed; E-Mail: [email protected]; Tel.: +46-46-222-7536, Fax: +46-46-222-4226. Received: 1 July 2013; in revised form: 10 September 2013 / Accepted: 25 September 2013 / Published: 10 October 2013 Abstract: CNS-active drugs are used relatively often during pregnancy. Use during early pregnancy may increase the risk of a congenital malformation; use during the later part of pregnancy may be associated with preterm birth, intrauterine growth disturbances and neonatal morbidity. There is also a possibility that drug exposure can affect brain development with long-term neuropsychological harm as a result. This paper summarizes the literature on such drugs used during pregnancy: opioids, anticonvulsants, drugs used for Parkinson’s disease, neuroleptics, sedatives and hypnotics, antidepressants, psychostimulants, and some other CNS-active drugs. In addition to an overview of the literature, data from the Swedish Medical Birth Register (1996–2011) are presented. The exposure data are either based on midwife interviews towards the end of the first trimester or on linkage with a prescribed drug register.

    European Medicines Agency London, 29 October 2009 EMEA/666243/2009 ISSUE NUMBER: 0910 MONTHLY REPORT PHARMACOVIGILANCE WORKING PARTY (PHVWP) OCTOBER 2009 PLENARY MEETING The CHMP Pharmacovigilance Working Party (PhVWP) held its October 2009 plenary meeting on 19-21 October 2009. PhVWP DISCUSSIONS ON SAFETY CONCERNS Below is a summary of the discussions regarding non-centrally authorised medicinal products in accordance with the PhVWP publication policy (see under http://www.emea.europa.eu/htms/human/phv/reports.htm). Positions agreed by the PhVWP for non- centrally authorised products are recommendations to Member States. For safety updates concerning centrally authorised products and products subject to ongoing CHMP procedures, readers are referred to the CHMP Monthly Report (see under http://www.emea.europa.eu/pressoffice/presshome.htm). The PhVWP provides advice on these products to the Committee of Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) upon its request. Antipsychotics - risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) Identify risk factors for VTE for preventive action before and during treatment with antipsychotics The PhVWP completed their review on the risk of VTE of antipsychotics1. The review was triggered by and based on data from the UK spontaneous adverse drug reactions reporting system and the published literature. The PhVWP carefully considered the data, including the limitations of both information sources, such as the lack of randomised controlled trial data, the heterogeneity of published studies and the potential confounding factors such as sedation and weight gain, commonly present in antipsychotic users. The PhVWP concluded that an association between VTE and antipsychotics cannot be excluded. Distinguishing different risk levels between the various active substances was not possible.
