Abstrakt: | Several preclinical studies have reported that daily administration of the antipsychotic drug (APD) risperidone (RISP) impedes recovery after traumatic brain injury (TBI). However, it is not known whether intermittent dosing would produce similar deleterious effects. The relevance of providing APDs intermittently is that not all patients in rehabilitation require daily treatments to manage TBI-induced agitation. Hence, the goal of the current study was to test the hypothesis that intermittent (vs. daily) administration of RISP would be less disturbing to motor and cognitive recovery after TBI. Anesthetized adult male rats were subjected to either a cortical impact of moderate severity or sham injury and then were randomly assigned to groups receiving intraperitoneal injections of vehicle (VEH; 1.0 mL/kg) or RISP (0.45 mg/kg) 1x, 3x, or 7x per week until the completion of behavioral testing, which consisted of motor and cognitive assessments on post-operative days 1-5 and 14-19, respectively. The group receiving RISP 7x week exhibited greater motor and cognitive impairment compared to those receiving RISP 1x or 3x per week, or VEH [p<0.05]. Moreover, no differences were observed between the intermittent RISP groups vs. VEH [p>0.05], which supports the hypothesis. A potential clinical ramification is that RISP may be safe to manage agitation after TBI, but only when used sparingly. (Copyright © 2018 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.) |
