Introduction
Patients will have a better prognosis with a shorterperiod from the onset of illness to intervention andearly detection before disease progression may havea good influence on the prognosis.
Second-generation antipsychotics are effective forpreventing or delaying progression to psychosis
Their use is restrictedas first-linepharmacotherapy

Aim: to examine the speed of response,
doses, and safety of treatmentwith second-generation antipsychotics (SGAs) in patients at
ultra-high risk (UHR) compared to those with
schizophrenia.

BASELINE
CHARACTERISTICS
A total of 72 patients (48subjects were inpatients)were registered at Zikei
Hospital, but only 61(UHR = 17, FES = 23,MES = 21) wereincluded as subjects
because only casestreated with anantipsychotic drug as themain agent were eligiblefor this study.

compared with the other two groups.
Adverse events other than EPSs included somnolence and
fatigue in all three groups.

Discussion
We examined response doses safety SGA
UHR Schizophrenia
UHR patients showed significantly fasterand greater improvement compared to those
with FES and MES
CAARMSUHR patients are defined as those with mild symptoms of
schizophrenia
8/14/2019 journal psikiatri hehe.pptx
22/46
The CGI-S is a rating scale that can be used after
evaluation with GAF and PANSS.
The CGI-S result showed that UHR patients had already
reached a good level after 4 weeks with greater
improvement at this time point compared with the other
two groups
Thus, this is the first study to show faster improvement
of functions and global impressions in UHR patients
compared to those with FES and MES after treatment
with SGAs, based on the GAF and CGI-S

both a poor responseand adverse events

groups
8/14/2019 journal psikiatri hehe.pptx
25/46
SGAs can be administered safely in UHR patients by
proper choice of the dosage and use of anti cholinergic
agents
Anti cholinergic agents were permitted in the study,
including preventive prescription before appearance of
EPSs.
UHR group showed the most improvement of functions and
global impressions and the lowest incidence of EPSs
8/14/2019 journal psikiatri hehe.pptx
26/46
SGAs caused less EPSs compared than f irst-generat ion
ant ipsy cho t ics (FGAs), and FGAs m ay increase the
incid ence of EPSs in UHRs patients .
EPSs occured in one
subject (6%) in th UHR
group during the 12-
week study period.
if UHR patients are prescribed
SGAs at higher doses that
necessary to improve symptoms
safety can be compromised
and adverse event may reach
level observed in the FES group.
8/14/2019 journal psikiatri hehe.pptx
27/46
Based on age, MES group tended to be higherthan in the FES higher.
The sl igh t ly higher age in the MES group
may cause the s low imp rovement of
funct ions and g lobal impress ions.
8/14/2019 journal psikiatri hehe.pptx
28/46
All SGAs have some inhibitory effects on
receptors relate to sedation, such as histamine
or 1 receptor
A meta-analysisshowed thatrisperidone,quetiapine,
olanzapine, andaripiprazole
frequently caused
somnolence as anadverse event.
Other adverseevents :
a. Somnolence
b. Fatigue
8/14/2019 journal psikiatri hehe.pptx
29/46
In a double-blind
comparative study ofolanzapine and placebo
in UHR patients,McGlashan et al found a
significant
improvement in thosetreated with olanzapine
from 8 weeks and a fasterresponse to olanzapinecompared to placebo.
Similarly, SGAs have
been shown to besignificantly more
effective than placebo in
comparative studies in
UHR patients from 8 to12 weeks of treatment,
with no difference in
safety.
Thus, the short-term advantage of
SGAs in UHR patients is clear
8/14/2019 journal psikiatri hehe.pptx
30/46
Antipsychotics areappropriate for use ifimmediateimprovement isneeded.
However, theefficacy and safety
of SGAs for falsepositive casesremains uncertain.
8/14/2019 journal psikiatri hehe.pptx
31/46
Conclusion
The studies showedthat UHR patients hadhigher sensitivity anda faster response to a
lower dose of SGAs,compared to patients
with FES or MES.
We suggest that SGAscan be safely
prescribed to UHRpatientswith extremelymild positive symptomsbut with serious acting
out.
The efficacy and safetyof SGAs in these
patients was shown bygiving minimizing dose
and usinganticholinergic drugs.
