Drugs used for ICU Delirium
Haloperidol | Quetiapine | Dexmedetomidine | Olanzapine | |
---|---|---|---|---|
Mechanism of action | Nonselective blockade of postsynaptic dopaminergic D2 receptors in the brain [ | Antagonism of serotonin 5-HT2 and dopamine D2 receptors [ | Selective α2- adrenergic receptor agonist [ | Potent antagonist of serotonin 5-HT2A and 5-HT2C, histamine H1, dopamine D1-4, and alpha1-adrenergic receptors. Moderate antagonist of muscarinic M1-5, and 5-HT3 receptors [ |
Half life | Decanoate: 21 days Lactate: 20 hours (Intramuscular (IM)) 14-26 hours (IV) 14-37 hours (oral) [ | 6 hours [ | Up to 3 hours, significantly prolonged with severe hepatic impairment [ | Oral and IM: 30 hours; approximately 1.5 times greater in elderly [ |
Metabolism | Mainly hepatic metabolism to inactive metabolites [ | Metabolised by liver to active metabolites with low activity levels [ | Hepatic metabolism [ | Mainly hepatic metabolism with 40% removed via first pass metabolism [ |
Effect with hepatic impairment | No dosage adjustment needed but concentration may increase in patients with hepatic impairment [ | Higher plasma levels are expected in the hepatically impaired population, and dosage adjustment may be needed [ | No dosage adjustment recommended but consider dose reduction in patients with hepatic impairment [ | No dosage adjustment needed. Use with caution in patients with hepatic impairment [ |
Effect with renal impairment | No dosage adjustment needed [ | Renal insufficiency does not need dosage adjustments. However, in severe renal impairment, alterations in protein binding of quetiapine may affect its pharmacokinetics [10,11] | No dosage adjustment needed [ | No dosage adjustment needed [ |
Peak concentration | Decanoate: 6 days Lactate: 20 minutes (IM) 2-6 hours (oral) [ | 1-2h [ | IV loading dose: 15-30 minutes [ | Short acting injection: 15-45 minutes Extended release injection: ~7 days Oral: ~6 hours [ |
Advantages | Low treatment cost [ | Low risk of EPS (extrapyramidal symptoms) and QTc prolongation compared to typical antipsychotics [ | Analgesia and sedation with minimal respiratory depression [ | No QTc prolongation [ |
Side effects | QTc prolongation, drowsiness, hypotension and EPS [ | Somnolence, orthostatic hypotension, and tachycardia [ | Bradycardia, hypotension [ | Orthostatic hypotension, EPS, weight gain, drowsiness, transaminitis [ |
