Genetics of antipsychotic-induced weight gain: update and current perspectives.

Pharmacogenomics - 1 Dec 2013

Kao Amy C C, Müller Daniel J

Abstract excerpt

Antipsychotic medications are used to effectively treat various symptoms for different psychiatric conditions. Unfortunately, antipsychotic-induced weight gain (AIWG) is a common side effect that frequently results in obesity and secondary medical conditions. Twin and sibling studies have indicated that genetic factors are likely to be highly involved in AIWG. Over recent years, there has been considerable...
