Abstract

Pimozide is an antipsychotic can cause side effects such as tremor, rigidity, dystonia, akathisia, gynecomastia. Another rare side effect is psychogenic polydipsia and subsequent hyponatremia. In this case report, we discussed the polydipsia-hyponatremia syndrome associated with pimozide, which is not currently preferred due to cardiac side effects. This case illustrates the risk of water intoxication in antipsychotic-treated patients with non-psychiatric care and emphasizes the interest of regular ionic control in such patients.

Özet

Pimozid, tremor, rijidite, distoni, akatizi, jinekomasti gibi yan etkilere neden olabilen bir antipsikotiktir. Diğer bir nadir yan etkisi psikojenik polidipsiyi takiben ortaya çıkan hiponatremi tablosudur. Bu olgu sunumunda, günümüzde kardiyak yan etkileri nedeniyle fazla tercih edilmeyen pimozid ile ilişkili polidipsi-hiponatremi sendromunu tartıştık. Bu olgu, psikiyatrik bakımı yeterli olmayan ve antipsikotik kullanan hastalardaki su zehirlenmesi riskini göstermekte ve bu tür hastalarda düzenli iyon dengesi kontrolünün önemini vurgulamaktadır.
