Why Do Antipsychotics Cause Extrapyramidal Symptoms? Have you ever wondered why some medications used to treat mental health conditions can cause movement-related side effects? In this informative video, we'll explain the reasons behind extrapyramidal symptoms caused by certain antipsychotic drugs. We’ll start by discussing how these medications work in the brain and what happens when they interfere with normal neurotransmitter activity. We'll explore the role of dopamine and acetylcholine in controlling muscle movement and how blocking dopamine receptors leads to imbalances that result in symptoms like tremors, rigidity, restlessness, and muscle contractions. You’ll learn about the specific pathways involved and why first-generation antipsychotics are more likely to cause these side effects. We’ll also cover how healthcare providers manage these issues, including the use of additional medications to restore balance. Whether you're a patient, caregiver, or healthcare professional, understanding the connection between medication action and side effects is essential for making informed decisions about treatment options.
