A New Approach to Schizophrenia Medication
B.e.a.m Touching Lives

Schizophrenia Medication A New Approach To New
Life
  • You never know when Schizophrenia has made a
    place in your mind and occupied your life slowly
    and steadily. But, antipsychotics are available
    in the market for the treatment of Schizophrenia
    disorder.
  • Note However, a new schizophrenia medication
    has been approved by the FDA (U.S. Food and Drug
    Administration) for the treatment of this
    disorder-ITI-007 in December 2019. 
  • It has been calculated thatITI-007(42mg) can take
    over the pharmaceutical industry in early 2020,
    Antipsychotic drugs help a person to bring him to
    his natural state.

Schizophrenia Medication A New Approach To New
Life
  • Caplyta is a blue white capsule with 42 mg
    dosage, imprinted withITI-007 is a new
    antipsychotic drug for the treatment of
    Schizophrenia. According to the Controlled
    Substance Act (CSA), the Caplyta is not a
    controlling drug (a substance whose usage has
    been approved by the government).
  •  
  • Intra-Cellular Therapies, Inc. is the only
    supplier until now for this new Schizophrenia
    medication. It is a Nobel prize-winning
    biopharmaceutical company established to study
    the effects of treatments on the internal
    functioning of cells.
  •  
  • 1-10 dizziness may occur to you after taking
    Caplyta which is normal. The dizziness is caused
    due to the release of hormones which helps you to
    get asleep so that your mind would not fight
    between real and imaginary worlds.

New Surgery For Parkinsons Disease (PD)
  • Dopamine levels in the brain fall due to the
    breakdown of nerve cells in the brain and thus
    cause a mental disorder known as Parkinsons.
  •  
  • Currently, the new surgery for Parkinsons
    disease is Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS), this
    improves the symptoms of PD by reducing the off
    stages of a person that he suffers throughout a
    day. A patient who is not responding to the
    Parkinsons medicines has been diagnosed with
    surgery, the most successful and common surgery
    is known as DBS.
  • A device is implemented in the brains targeted
    area which has stopped responding to any
    medication. The surgery is suggested to those
    patients only who have been suffering from PD for
    more than 4 years.

New Surgery For Parkinsons Disease (PD)
  • DBS alters the motor symptoms of PD like
    stiffness, slowed movement, tremor, and walking
    problems. Before going to the DBS surgery, the
    patient undergoes an extensive assessment to
    ensure if he requires brain surgery or not.
  •  
  • Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and Computed
    tomography (CT) scanning are two methods that
    test the targeted area of the brain that will go
    for implantation.
  •  
  • The surgery for Parkinsons disease is processed
    in two stages at first, the local anaesthesia is
    applied on the scalp and tiny wires are inserted
    into the brains targeted area. The second stage
    is operated with general anesthesia and a
    neurostimulator is implanted in the brain.

New Surgery For Parkinsons Disease (PD)
  • DBS is not a permanent cure for the PD nor it
    stops the expansion of the disease, but some
    patients who have been diagnosed with DBS have
    seen a significant reduction in the symptoms of
    PD. Also, the patient does not require a high
    dosage of medications after the surgery.
  •  
  • Note Do not go under such brain surgery
    without consulting your neurosurgeon, though you
    might be suffering from Parkinsons disease you
    might not need DBS.
