Question:
Try a new psychiatrist. In my opinion he is mixing too many drugs at once. Neuroleptics are depressants. I would not expect them to cause seizures, but it might be prudent to review the data in the PDR. I never heard of loxitane. What country are you in? "SSR" <sweetmusic…@sympatico.ca

My 17 year old son was put on loxitane for his illness, and recently
(about
2 weeks after begining the therapy he had a seizure, complete with foam at mouth. The psychiatrist decided to try some of the new anti-psychotic
drugs
(i.e. seroquel) but they were mainly ineffective. Right now, my boy is in the hospital, trying to stabalize his condition.
So
I’m more than a liittle concerned, now that we are using the older drugs (ie. Prolixin), does anyone know after if having had a seizure on
loxitane,
if it (the seizure) is likely to occur again?? P.S. The boy is also on Prozac, Elavil, Parsitan, and Remeron. Love to you all! -SR

i have not heard of seisures specifically, but certainly people have reactions to drugs. i had tachycardia from a risperidal derivative. there is also NMS (Neuroleptic Malignant Syndrome) which is very dangerous. antipsychotics are serious shit and should only be taken if needed. antidepressants are like candy in comparison (other than some tricyclic reactions). m.

from the Physician’s Desk Reference (HTML conversion): "Seizures have been reported in patients receiving LOXITANE at antipsychotic dose levels, and may occur in epileptic patients even with maintenance of routine anticonvulsant drug therapy." so it’s certainly linked to seisures. Anticholinergic action, EPS, NMS, cardiovascular effects, and TD are all fun possibilities. m.

I had seizures on seroquel. they did lots of tests on my brain and found i wasn’t epileptic. right before the fits i saw poisonous spiders crawling around everywhere. — kes – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text -

I stand corrected.
good idea to check the PDR. doctors often lie or deceive. for instance, i was told in 1995 that laser eye surgery for myopia had zero risk. people seem surprised that i get so much sedation from Zyprexa, yet the literature clearly states that this is common. and anti-psychotics are often used in conjunction with SSRIs, yet my doctor claimed this was a rare treatment for SZ. yet he earlier claimed that he used these drug combinations a lot (for what though?!). the nurses in the hospital claimed my tachycardia (up to 140 BPM) was from smoking and not an AP. yet the literature again states that tachycardia occurs in a few percent of patients. anyway, check up on any drug you take. the doctors and especially nurses are often full of bullshit. m.

Hopefully, they are lying, and not actually that incompetent. I had a p-doc tell me that thyoridizine, was supposed to act like an anti-depressant. I had complained that it made me depressed. He came up with a quick lie. "gravity" <grav…@example.net
