Rapidly progressive parkinsonism in a self-reported user of ecstasy and other drugs.

A 38-year-old man developed parkinsonism that progressed to Hoehn and Yahr stage 5 within 4 years of onset. Response to ropinirole deteriorated, levodopa was not tolerated, and subthalamic nucleus stimulation has provided only partial relief of symptoms. He reported heavy use of Ecstasy through most of his twenties and thirties. His neurological problems may be unrelated to his drug use, but it is also possible they represent an idiosyncratic reaction.     

Mono- or Polypharmacotherapy in Institutionalized Epileptic Children with Severe Mental Retardation?

ABSTRACT. Nine severely mentally retarded patients with severe epilepsy who were living in an institution were studied during a three-year period by a multi-disciplinary team. A seizure rate serum level chart was made for each patient. It served as the basis for monthly discussions in the team about medication changes. Drug plasma concentrations were monitored monthly. Statistical comparisons between seizure frequency on different drug regimens were made by χ² test. Withdrawal of all medication was possible in one case and reduction to monotherapy in two cases. In the remainder of the patients a combination of two or three anticonvulsants gave the best clinical effect. We thus found polypharmacotherapy necessary for some severely retarded patients with epilepsy. Our multidisciplinary approach and chart monitoring system has many advantages and is valuable for the medical care and drug treatment of this patient category.

Nutritional considerations in intravenous drug misusers: a review of the literature and current issues for dietitians

Poor nutritional status and inadequate dietary intake in intravenous drug misusers (IVDMs) is a well-recognized problem among those involved in their care.
