haloperidol and Learning Disabilities

haloperidol has been researched along with Learning Disabilities in 18 studies

Haloperidol: A phenyl-piperidinyl-butyrophenone that is used primarily to treat SCHIZOPHRENIA and other PSYCHOSES. It is also used in schizoaffective disorder, DELUSIONAL DISORDERS, ballism, and TOURETTE SYNDROME (a drug of choice) and occasionally as adjunctive therapy in INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY and the chorea of HUNTINGTON DISEASE. It is a potent antiemetic and is used in the treatment of intractable HICCUPS. (From AMA Drug Evaluations Annual, 1994, p279)
haloperidol : A compound composed of a central piperidine structure with hydroxy and p-chlorophenyl substituents at position 4 and an N-linked p-fluorobutyrophenone moiety.

Learning Disabilities: Conditions characterized by a significant discrepancy between an individual's perceived level of intellect and their ability to acquire new language and other cognitive skills. These may result from organic or psychological conditions. Relatively common subtypes include DYSLEXIA, DYSCALCULIA, and DYSGRAPHIA.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" Withdrawal of the narcolepsy treatment and initiation of haloperidol 1 mg/day (the only antipsychotic treatment she could tolerate) improved the delusions, hallucinations and dysphoria but worsened the narcolepsy symptoms."3.85Narcolepsy-cataplexy and psychosis: a case study. ( Arango-Lopez, C; Canellas-Dols, F; Delgado, C; Peraita-Adrados, R, 2017)
"Pretreatment with haloperidol (0."1.35Differential antagonism of cocaine self-administration and cocaine-induced disruptions of learning by haloperidol in rhesus monkeys. ( Moerschbaecher, JM; Roussell, AM; Winsauer, PJ, 2008)
"Psychosis is linked to dysregulation of the neuromodulator dopamine and antipsychotic drugs (APDs) work by blocking dopamine receptors."1.34Linking animal models of psychosis to computational models of dopamine function. ( Becker, S; Kapur, S; Li, M; Smith, AJ, 2007)
"Tourette syndrome is a neuropsychiatric disorder of motor and vocal tics, with associated symptoms of obsessive-compulsive behaviors and attention deficit disorder with hyperactivity."1.27[The treatment of children with Gilles de la Tourette's syndrome]. ( Minderaa, RB, 1987)
"Tourette's syndrome is a disorder of central nervous system functioning in which the most easily recognized symptoms of involuntary movements and vocalizations have been found to be responsive, in many cases, to pharmacotherapy with haloperidol."1.26Tourette's syndrome: an expanded view. ( O'Quinn, AN; Thompson, RJ, 1980)
" A long-term use of haloperidol did not exert any significant influence on the cortical function of the formation of conditioned reflexes, but there was a retardation in the fixation of new conditioned reflexes after 6 months of drug administration."1.26[Pathophysiologic and morphologic changes in the central nervous system following long-term haloperidol administration].
