1. The authors attempted to correlate plasma concentrations in H/rH and clinical efficacy from 8 schizophrenic patients (DSM IIIR) on H. 2. No significant correlations were found between H, rH plasma levels and positive and negative subscale for each patient.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of reduced haloperidol, the main metabolite of the antipsychotic drug haloperidol, on psychopathology improvement and extrapyramidal adverse effects in acute schizophrenia. The steady-state pharmacokinetics of reduced haloperidol was studied. Serum

We evaluated the inhibitory effect of haloperidol and its metabolites on CYP2D6 activity in order to better understand the potential role of these metabolites in drug interactions involving haloperidol. The inhibitory effects of haloperidol and five of its metabolites on

A sensitive and accurate liquid chromatographic-electrospray mass spectrometric (LC-ES-MS) method for the determination of haloperidol (H) and reduced haloperidol (RH) in human plasma is presented, using chlorohaloperidol as the internal standard. A 2-ml volume of plasma was subjected to basic

The neuroleptic agent haloperidol (HP) is biotransformed in humans to a pyridinium metabolite, HPP+, that displays neurotoxic properties resembling those of the 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)-derived neurotoxic pyridinium metabolite MPP+. We report here that HP and its tetrahydropyridine dehydration product 4-(4-chlorophenyl)-1-[4-(4-fluorophenyl)-4-oxobutyl]-1,2,3,6- tetrahydropyridine
