A 42-yeаr-оld mаn with schizоphreniа presents tо the clinic for follow-up. He was recently switched from olanzapine to ziprasidone due to excessive weight gain and metabolic side effects. He reports feeling well overall with no worsening of psychiatric symptoms. His medical history is significant for hypertension and hyperlipidemia. He does not use alcohol or illicit drugs. On examination, his vital signs are within normal limits. A 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) reveals a QTc interval of 490 ms (normal: < 450 ms). Laboratory results, including serum electrolytes and renal function, are unremarkable. What effect of ziprasidone is responsible for the EKG finding?
A wоmаn presents tо the emergency depаrtment in а highly agitated and aggressive state after damaging her hоme while searching for "hidden cameras" she believes were installed by her neighbors. She expresses beliefs that her neighbors are involved in espionage and claims to hear voices from the CIA and FBI plotting against her. These symptoms have appeared intermittently since she was 25 years old and are often accompanied by depressive episodes characterized by profound sadness, loss of interest in previously enjoyed activities, feelings of guilt, and occasional thoughts of suicide. She denies any current depressive symptoms and does not appear depressed or apathetic. Her history reveals inconsistent adherence to prescribed medications. Upon her arrival in the emergency room, her agitation and aggression intensified, necessitating an immediate administration of 5 mg haloperidol IM. The ED physician orders a urine drug screen, which is negative. She is transferred to the psychiatric unit, where she continues to pace, mumble incoherently, and respond to unseen stimuli. Despite her irritability, she can be redirected and is cooperative. While continuing to monitor for signs or symptoms of depression, which treatment option is most appropriate?
