A study by researchers at the Canadian Network for Mood and Anxiety Treatments (CANMAT) comparing the relative effectiveness of two psychosocial interventions in bipolar disorder has recently been published in the Journal of Clinical Psychiatry.
Bipolar disorder is insufficiently controlled by medication, so several supplementary psychosocial interventions have been tested, all of which are lengthy, expensive, and difficult to disseminate. CREST.BD members Dr. Sagar Parikh and Vytas V. Velyvis co-authored a recent paper along with their collegues at CANMAT, which relates the findings of the recent study that compared psychoeducation (PE) and cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) in bipolar disorder in bipolar disorder. CBT is a longer, more costly, individualized treatment while PE is less expensive to provide and requires less clinician training to deliver successfully. To date, only a few studies have compared these psychosocial treatments. In this presentation, Dr. Parikh and colleagues compared the relative effectiveness of a brief psychoeducation group intervention to a more comprehensive, and longer individual cognitive-behavioural therapy intervention (CBT) with a sample of 204 individuals who live with bipolar disorder. They measured long-term outcomes in mood burden of the participants in both treatments. Findings indicate that, despite its longer treatment duration and cost, CBT did not show significantly greater clinical benefit compared to group psychoeducation. The implications of these findings for psychosocial interventions in the condition are provided.

Drug Abuse & Society (RX 462) Presentations-Spring 2014Brian Piper
This includes end of the semester presentations made by 2nd and 3rd year pharmacy students as part of an elective course. Each student was asked to provide information about history, epidemiology, pharmacodynamics, pharmacokinetics, and toxicology. Older "classic" (psilocybin, ayahuasca, crack), newer (JWB-018, mephedrone, MDA) drugs were covered as well as agents that have appreciable use outside the U.S. (desomorphine, areca nut, kava).
Overview of electronic cigarettes including history, components, safety and adverse events, efficacy in smoking cessation, pharmacokinetics and epidemiology. This presentation was originally delivered to 2nd year pharmacy students as part of a two semester class on pharmacology and toxicology.
Examination of Sexually Dimorphic Behavior on the Novel-Image Novel-Location ...Brian Piper
Objectives: Sex differences in object location memory favoring females appear to be a replicable phenomenon but may also depend on the task demands. This investigation evaluated if females outperformed males at both a short (immediate) and long (half-hour) interval between the learn and test condition using a recently developed version of the Novel-Image Novel-Location (NINL) test (Piper et al. 2011, Physiology & Behavior,
103, 513 - 522). Methods: Young-adults (N = 184) completed a standardized handedness inventory and the NINL. Results: Participants assigned to the Immediate and Delayed conditions did not differ in age, sex, or handedness. The NINL total score was higher among females at the Immediate, but not Delayed, interval. However, within the Delayed condition, females excelled at correctly identifying the unchanged items with a similar pattern for the Novel-Location (NL) scale. Conclusions: These findings are consistent with the view that sexually dimorphic performance favoring females in neurocognitive function can also extend to tasks that have a spatial component.
Drug abuse and society drug presentations: Spring 2013Brian Piper
This presentation is on recreational drugs as part of a elective course for 2nd and 3rd year pharmacy students. The instructions were to include what is known about history, pharmacodynamics, pharmacokinetics including common routes of administration, overdose potential, and recent epidemiology.
The class chose some older agents (peyote, LSD, mushrooms, cocaine), others that have only become more popular recently (bath sats, synthetic cannabinoids), and some medical drugs (methylphenidate, oxycontin).

12. Benzodiazepines & GAD
• MOA: ↑ frequency of GABAA α1, α2, α3, α5 Cl-
• Onset: rapid (hours) versus 2+ weeks for SRI/SNRI
• Recommendation: Addiction concerns indicate
tertiary use
• Reality: very commonly used
13. Ashton’s Recommendations of Benzo
Withdrawal
• Frequency: 30%?
• Symptoms: flu-like, sweating, flushing,
convulsions, muscle ache, pain, fatigue,
energy, stiffness, depression, seizures
• Strategy
– gradual/individualized dosage recommendation
– anti-depressants may be needed (SRIs)
– psychological support
Ashton, H. (1994). Addiction, 89, 1535-1541.
14. Future: A More Selective Benzo?
• Determination of which GABAA α subunit is
required for anxiolytic effect of benzodiazepines.
• Mice with α2 subunit modified so diazepam
doesn’t bind completed behavioral testing

Low et al. (2004). Science, 290(5489), 131-134.
17. GAD Summary
• GAD treatment was focused on acute
symptom management (Benzo). Recent focus
is on prevention (SSRI).
• SSRIs show 60% response, 30% remission
• Benzos continue to be commonly prescribed
as a first-line in primary care settings
Reinhold et al. (2011). Expert Opinion in Pharmacotherapy, 12(16), 2457-2467.
18. Panic Disorder
• Panic Attacks:
– Psychological: sudden, intense anxiety/terror,
depersonalization/derealization
– Physical: labored breathing, heart palpitations,
chest pain, sweating, chills, trembling
• Criteria
– May co-occur with agoraphobia
– Recurrent uncued panic attacks
– At least 1 month of concern about future
attacks
Kring, A. (2012). Abnormal Psychology, p. 179.
19. Contrast
• APA recommends:
– 1) SSRI: fluoxetine, sertraline, paroxetine
– 2) SNRI: venlafaxine ER
– 3) TCA: imipramine
– 4) Benzos: alprazolam
• Benzos continue to be very common for long-
term Panic Disorder treatment

20. Social Anxiety Disorder (Social Phobia)
• Marked & disproportionate fear consistently
triggered by exposure to potential social
scrutiny
• Trigger situations are avoided or endured with
intense anxiety
• Symptoms persist for at least 6 months

23. Summary
• Anxiety disorders are extremely common psychiatric
conditions.
• Although Benzodiazepines are commonly used for their acute
anxiolytic effects, practice guidelines consistently recommend
SSRI/SNRI as first line pharmacotherapies for long-term
symptomatic management for GAD, SAD, and Panic Disorder.
24. Prementrual Dysphorphic Disorder
• In most menstrual cycles during the past year,
at least 5 in the final week before menses:
– Affective lability
– Irritability
– Anxiety
– Diminished interest in usual activities
– Sleeping too much or too little
– Physical symptoms: breast tenderness,
joint/muscle pain, bloating
• SSRIs are FDA approved
Kring, A. (2012). Abnormal Psychology, p. 134.
Anxiety’s final common pathway involves over-activity of the HPA axis or a failure of negative feedback to turn off this system.
Interview conducted with a large (N=9000) nationally representative sample. Notice tremendous individual differences in onset age.
Good general description (2 min): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NPWFXZJ59JsAnxiety is out of proportion from the concern.
Paroxetine is a moderate antagonist of muscarinic (M1) receptors. R-citalopram is also a weak anti-histamine inhibitor.
Low dose venlafaxine has more pronounced effects on SRI than NRI. The NRI effects become more pronounced with higher doses. The half-life of venlafaxine is 5 hours but its metabolite desvenlafaxine is twice as long.Duloxetine moderately inhibits 2D6.
Seizures are rare but have been reported. For a video from Heather Ashton, see: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UsjhqdE7-6AApproximately 1/3rd of long-term benzo users will have difficulties with withdrawal. The dose reduction process can last months or even years. She recommends a plan that is developed in collaboration between patient and their health care provider. This could involve 1 mg diazepam/2 weeks.
This is a very subtle modification which involves going to the drug binding site and replacing a the amino acid Histidine (H) with an Arginine (A).

Metabolized by 3A4.
Cued panic attack (e.g. snakes) = phobia.
DSM-IVTR refers to Social Phobia but this will be changed to Social Anxiety Disorder for DSM 5. SAD has high rates of alcohol dependence (20%).
Symptoms typically improve with a few days of menses. PMDD may occur in 3-5% of women.
