What Aripicon is and how it works<\/h2>\n

Aripicon is an aripiprazole tablet supplied by Cipla. Available strengths: 5 \/ 10 \/ 15 \/ 20 \/ 30 mg<\/strong>. Aripiprazole is mechanistically distinct from other atypical antipsychotics: it acts as a partial agonist<\/strong> at dopamine D2 and serotonin 5-HT1A receptors and a full antagonist at 5-HT2A receptors. The partial-agonist profile means it functions as an antagonist where dopamine activity is high (treating positive symptoms in schizophrenia) and as a weak agonist where dopamine activity is low (preserving cognition, lowering risk of motor side effects and hyperprolactinaemia).<\/p>\n

Single daily dose, with or without food. Titrate slowly in patients sensitive to akathisia.<\/p>\n

Belangrijke veiligheidsoverwegingen<\/h2>\n
\nFDA black-box \u2014 dementia-related psychosis<\/strong><\/p>\n

All atypical antipsychotics carry an FDA black-box warning for increased mortality (mostly cardiovascular and infectious) when used to treat behavioural disturbance in older adults with dementia. Atypicals are not approved for dementia-related psychosis or agitation<\/strong>. Use in this population is off-label, last-resort, time-limited, and requires explicit risk-benefit conversation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\nAkathisia is the dominant side effect<\/strong><\/p>\n

Aripiprazole produces less weight gain, less sedation, and less prolactin elevation than other atypicals \u2014 but more akathisia<\/strong> (an inner sense of restlessness, often described as “needing to move”, “skin crawling”, or “can’t sit still”). Akathisia is the most common cause of aripiprazole discontinuation. Manage with dose reduction, propranolol 20\u201380 mg\/day, or switch.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\nImpulse-control disorders (rare)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Pathological gambling, hypersexuality, compulsive shopping, and binge eating have been reported on aripiprazole \u2014 caused by the partial D2\/D3 agonism. Stops on discontinuation. Ask explicitly at follow-up.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\nSuicidality black-box (under-25 in MDD adjunct use)<\/strong><\/p>\n

When used as an antidepressant adjunct, the under-25 suicidality warning applies.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
