WHAT RESPIDON IS USED FOR
It is used to treat psychotic conditions

withdrawal.

conditions also feel depressed, guilty,

be used.

WARNING AND PRECAUTION:
HYPERGLYCEMIA AND DIABETES MELLITUS
Hyperglycaemia,
in
some
cases
extreme
and
associated
with
ketoacidosis or hyperosmolar coma or death, has been reported in
patients treated with atypical antipsychotics. Assessment of the
relationship
between
atypical
antipsychotic
use
and
glucose
abnormalities is complicated by the possibility of an increased
background risk of diabetes mellitus in patients with schizophrenia
and the increasing incidence of diabetes mellitus in the general
population.
Given
these
confounders,
the
relationship
between
atypical
antipsychotic
use
and
hyperglycaemia-related
adverse
events
is
not
completely
understood.
However,
epidemiological
studies
suggest
an
increased
risk
of
treatment-emergent
hyperglycaemia-related adverse events in patients treated with the
atypical
antipsychotics.
Precise
risk
estimates
for
hyperglycaemia-related
adverse
events
in
patients
treated
with
atypical antipsychotics are not available.
Patients with an established diagnosis of diabetes mellitus who are
started on atypical antipsychotics should be monitored regularly for
worsening of glucose control. Patients with risk factors for diabetes
mellitus (e.g., obesity, family history of diabetes) who are starting
treatment with atypical antipsychotics should undergo fasting blood
glucose testing at the beginning of treatment and periodically during
treatment. Any patient treated with atypical antipsychotics should be
monitored for symptoms of hyperglycaemia including polydipsia,
polyuria;
polyphagia,
and
weakness.
