Aripiprazole

A medication that belongs to the class of drugs known as atypical antipsychotics. It is primarily used to treat symptoms of schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and depression. Aripiprazole works by adjusting the levels of certain neurotransmitters in the brain, such as dopamine and serotonin, which are involved in regulating mood and behavior.In a drug treatment facility like Housing Works, aripiprazole may be used to help manage symptoms of substance withdrawal, particularly in cases where there is an underlying mental health condition, such as schizophrenia or bipolar disorder. Aripiprazole may also be used as part of a comprehensive treatment plan for individuals with co-occurring substance use and mental health disorders.

Olanzapine/Fluoxetine combination

Olanzapine/Fluoxetine combination is a medication that is prescribed for the treatment of depressive episodes associated with bipolar I disorder, as well as treatment-resistant depression in adults. It is a combination of two active ingredients, olanzapine and fluoxetine, that work by modulating the activity of neurotransmitters in the brain. This medication is typically used when other antidepressant medications have been found to be ineffective.

Quetiapine

An atypical antipsychotics used to treat schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and major depressive disorder by reducing the symptoms of schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and major depressive disorder, such as hallucinations, delusions, mood swings, and sleep disturbances. Aunique aspect of Quetiapine is that it has been associated with a relatively lower risk of extrapyramidal symptoms (EPS) compared to some other antipsychotics. EPS are a set of movement disorders that can occur with the use of antipsychotic medications, and can include symptoms such as tremors, muscle stiffness, and involuntary movements. While Quetiapine may still cause EPS in some individuals, it is generally considered to have a lower risk of these symptoms compared to other antipsychotics.

Nicotine replacement therapy usually takes the form of nicotine patches, gum or lozenges, nasal spray, or inhaler, aimed at curbing cravings and helping a person quit tobacco use.

Non-nicotine smoking/tobacco cessation

Medications that work on the brain to reduce a person's desire for tobacco and are not containing nicotine are known as smoking cessation medications. Some popular examples include Bupropion (Zyban, Wellbutrin) and Nortriptyline (Pamelor). These medications are often used along with behavioral therapy or support groups for maximum efficacy in helping individuals quit smoking for the long term.
