·36 min·2 clips
Dr. Jonathan Meyer joins host Lisa Phipps to answer follow-up questions from a recent psychopharmacology conference talk on schizophrenia. The conversation covers the appropriate use of xanomeline-trospium (KarXT) across related psychiatric conditions (schizoaffective disorder, schizophreniform, delusional disorder, Parkinson's disease psychosis, Alzheimer's), drug combinations including clozapine and antidepressants, pregnancy and lactation considerations, pediatric and geriatric dosing, and strategies to manage pro-cholinergic nausea. Meyer also discusses the future of muscarinic agonist therapy and the possibility of a long-acting injectable formulation.
