Antipsychotic induced weight gain: genetics, epigenetics, and biomarkers reviewed.

Current psychiatry reports - 1 Oct 2014

Shams Tahireh A, Müller Daniel J

Abstract excerpt

Antipsychotic-induced weight gain (AIWG) is a prevalent side effect of antipsychotic treatment, particularly with second generation antipsychotics, such as clozapine and olanzapine. At this point, there is virtually nothing that can be done to predict who will be affected by AIWG. However, hope for the future of prediction lies with genetic risk factors. Many genes have been studied for their association with...
