Nevertheless, clozapine is not effective in more than about 50% of treatment refractory schizophrenia patients, and several pharmacological strategies are used to augment it. Several reviews including meta-analyses have been published, but the efficacy of augmentation therapy for clozapine-resistant patients is not adequately supported. Though there is a weak connection between the oral dose and plasma concentration of clozapine, there is no report of augmentation therapy considering the plasma concentration of clozapine. Blonanserin is reported to be effective in treatment of both positive and negative symptoms of schizophrenia and well tolerated. Methods: We obtained consent to evaluate clinical presentations and clozapine plasma concentrations at the Okayama Psychiatric Medical Center and had not identified the individual for ethical reasons. This is a case report. Results: This case fulfilled the diagnostic criteria of neuroleptic-induced dopamine supersensitivity psychosis. Monotherapy with blonanserin was not effective, but augmentation of blonanserin with clozapine was effective and well tolerated by a clozapine-resistant schizophrenia patient. Conclusion: Because clozapine may ameliorate dopamine supersensitivity psychosis, the addition of blonanserin to clozapine may be effective even if monotherapy with blonanserin was not.展开更多

Further studies are needed to confirm the findings.展开更多

The patches were prepared with DURO-TAK (R) 87-2287 as a pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) containing 5% (w/w) of blonanserin and different concentrations of IPM. An in vitro release experiment was performed and the adhesive performance of the drug-in-adhesive patches with different concentrations of IPM was evaluated by a rolling ball tack test and a shear-adhesion test. The glass transition temperature (T-g) and rheological parameters of the drug-in-adhesive layers were determined to study the effect of IPM on the mechanical properties of the PSA. The results of the in vitro release experiment showed that the release rate of blonanserin increased with an increasing concentration of IPM. The rolling ball tack test and shear-adhesion test showed decreasing values with increasing IPM concentration. The results were interpreted on the basis of the IPM-induced plasticization of the PSA, as evidenced by a depression of the glass transition temperature and a decrease in the elastic modulus. In conclusion, IPM acted as a plasticizer on DURO-TAK (R) 87-2287, and it increased the release of blonanserin and affected the adhesive properties of the PSA.
