Psychotropic medication and priapism: a comprehensive review.

Numerous reports have emphasized the association between priapism and the ingestion of psychotropic medication. Clinicians are becoming increasingly aware of this association and its subsequent severe morbidity. Review of the literature reveals that medications possessing alpha-adrenergic blocking properties are most frequently associated with priapism. These medications include trazodone, several antipsychotics, and the antihypertensive agent, prazosin. Awareness of these associations and an appreciation of potentially serious consequences of this disorder may assist clinicians in choosing psychotropic agents that minimize the risk of developing priapism. It is essential that patients who are to receive psychotropic medications be forewarned about priapism. In addition, patients should be questioned concerning prior occurrence of prolonged erections, since a past history of delayed detumescence is present in approximately 50% of subsequent cases of priapism.

Imipramine treatment of panic disorder during pregnancy.

Two women with panic disorder who continued to be symptomatic during pregnancy were successfully treated with low doses of imipramine. Plasma drug concentrations were lower than usually required for antidepressant response and remained relatively stable during gestation. Each woman delivered a healthy infant with minimal discomfort from panic symptoms during pregnancy. These cases are illustrative of two women who had a need of and benefited from pharmacotherapy for panic disorder during pregnancy.
