Resumen

La risperidona es uno de los agentes antipsicóticos atípicos más recientes, que combina un potente antagonismo hacia los receptores para la serotonina y la dopamina. Se muestra eficaz contra los síntomas positivos y negativos de las psicosis esquizofrénicas y otros trastornos psicóticos, y tiene una baja propensión a causar efectos secundarios extrapiramidales. El propósito de estos informes clínicos en pacientes ancianos es proporcionar el beneficio de la experiencia personal con la risperidona al conjunto de las publicaciones y demostrar los tipos de pacientes que se pueden beneficiar del tratamiento. Estos casos se compilaron retrospectivamente a partir de los datos recogidos en la derivación y durante las citas hospitalarias habituales. Esta serie cubre cuatro áreas principales de preocupación en el tratamiento de los ancianos: las dosis bajas de mantenimiento que minimicen la probabilidad de acontecimientos adversos; el tratamiento con éxito de pacientes no controlados antes y que experimentan efectos secundarios con otros antipsicóticos; la posibilidad de tratamiento intermitente en lugar de continuo, y los beneficios para los pacientes, los cuidadores y los servicios sanitarios. En dosis bajas, la risperidona es un tratamiento efectivo y bien tolerado para las psicosis en los pacientes ancianos que mejora la calidad de vida tanto para los pacientes como para sus cuidadores.
