Atypical antipsychotic agents, also known as second-generation antipsychotics, or SGAs, are only approved for a very small number of specific indications.
They are being increasingly used off-label and for younger and younger children. They are used disproportionately for males, children in foster care, and those covered by Medicaid.
Much is still not known about the tolerability, efficacy and long-term safety of these agents, especially in children. There is considerable concern about the side effects/adverse drug reactions (ADRs) of these medications.
In particular, weight gain and metabolic effects can be significant and long-lasting. Children and adolescents also tend to experience more ADRs than adults taking SGAs.
Multiple groups have expressed
concerns over the trends in atypical antipsychotics for
children:
How young is too young?Age 0-4:
Avoid use of antipsychotics
Age 5-17:
Use with extreme caution
Pediatric patients 1996 - 2012Total Second-Generation Antipsychotic (SGA) increase: 600%
Psychotherapy increase 70%
2012: SGA use
Pediatric patients with moderate to
severe mental health impairment
2012: SGA use
Pediatric patients with less severe or no mental
health impairment

Ages 0 - 9 are less likely to: Relevance to SGA prescribing:
receive psychosocial interventions (PIs) PIs have demonstrated efficacy, with no risk of the ADRs associated with SGA use
Ages 0 - 9 are more likely to: Relevance to SGA prescribing:
experience health-related effects of poverty (e.g. obesity, dyslipidemia, cardiovascular disease)
SGA use creates additive risk of obesity, dyslipidemia, cardiovascular disease
experience placement in foster care children in foster care receive SGAs 6Xs more often than privately-insured children
experience ADRs from any medication even when taken correctly, SGA-ADRs lead to hospitalization 2.5Xs more than all other pediatric medications combined
receive more than one concurrent SGA and/or SGAs combined with other psychotropic medications
multiple SGA use and additional psychotropic medication use creates additive risk for multiple ADRs
Younger children have more risk factors than older children:
“Increasing consensus exists that antipsychotic medication should be the treatment of last resort, after parenting skills training and other behavioral treatments have failed.”
-Harrison et al, 2012, regarding preschool children

When should an antipsychotic be used?
1st and 2nd line:• Bipolar disorder• Schizophrenia• Tic disorder• Irritability or aggression due to autism
spectrum disorder (ASD)
3rd line:• Non-ASD aggression• Conduct disorder• Oppositional defiant disorder
Use an SGA in combination with psychosocial interventions:
These three disorders make up more than 75 percent of all pediatric SGA prescriptions. These disorders are most often symptomatic of another underlying disorder. Treatment of the underlying disorder usually removes the need for use of an SGA. (See Resources, pg. 20-21)
Most recent studies:• Aripiprazole (monotherapy): may help with additional ASD symptoms (lethargy, social withdrawal,
stereotypy, inappropriate speech, compulsions)• Risperidone (monotherapy): may help with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) that is not
responsive to stimulants• Oklahoma children covered by SoonerCare (Oklahoma Medicaid): only 6.3 percent had an appropriate
diagnosis while receiving an SGA in 2014

What if one antipsychotic doesn’t work?
• Allow adequate trial length (4-6 weeks)
• Assess comorbid conditions and medication adherence
• Re-evaluate initial diagnosis
• Redefine targeted symptoms
• Substitute with alternate SGA
Avoid combining SGAs.
Combining two or more SGAs should only be considered after:
• failed addition of a mood stabilizer, AND
• failed trials of three individual SGAs
□ Adequate trial length
□ In combination with PI (Psychosocial Interventions)With at least 80 percent adherence
□ One of the three trials was clozapine
SGAs are a very diverse class of medications, with mutliple pharmacological mechanisms of action and varying receptor site activity. The choice of agent is often determined by its side effect profile. Adding multiple agents rarely results in additive efficacy, but nearly always results in additive side effects and decreased adherence.
In particular, obesity, diabetes, dyslipidemia and hypertension are likely to increase when multiple agents are used. These risk factors increase the likelihood of morbidity and/or mortality due to cardiovascular disease later in life.
Olanzapine and clozapine are considered to have the highest potential for causing weight gain, glucose changes, diabetes and dyslipidemia. As such, even more extreme care should be exercised before using these agents in combination with another SGA.
Addition of, or substitution with, a mood stabilizer is preferred over combining multiple SGAs. (See Resources, pg. 20-21)
“There’s a general consensus that great caution should be exercised with
antipsychotic drugs.” -Mark Olfson, M.D., MPH, Professor of Clinical Psychiatry, Columbia University, Co-director AHRQ

How do we minimize ADRs?
Emergency care: SGA-ADRsNeuroleptic Malignant Syndrome
NMS is a rare but potentially fatal ADR. It is characterized by high fever, sweating, unstable blood pressure, stupor, muscle rigidity and autonomic dysfunction. Patients who experience NMS should not be re-challenged with the same medication.
SGAs v. First-generation antipsychotics (FGAs)
Although they have similar efficacy, SGAs have a much higher risk of metabolic and weight-related ADRs. While FGAs have a higher risk of movement disorders, SGA movement risk is still present. Movement disorders are the most common ADR (47.7 percent) for children requiring emergency care related to an SGA-ADR.
SGAs v. StimulantsSGAs are 3.8Xs more likely to require emergency care.
SGAs v. AntidepressantsSGAs are 2.7Xs more likely to require emergency care.
• Use an SGA only when recommended
• Use the lowest effective dose for the shortest time possible
• Avoid multiple SGAs
• Utilize management strategies
Reducing ADRs leads to improved patient adherence.
SGA adherence for pediatric patients covered by SoonerCare is currently 27.2 percent.
Pediatric patients experience even more SGA-related ADRs than adults. • 74 percent of adult patients discontinue SGA use within 18 months.
• 20 percent of those adult patients list ADRs as the reason for discontinuing SGA use.

HEAD DROPPING:The patient lies on a well-padded examining table and his head is raised by the examiner’s hand. The hand is then withdrawn and the head allowed to drop. In the normal subject the head will fall upon the table. The movement is delayed in extrapyramidal system disorder and in extreme parkinsonism it is absent. The neck muscles are rigid and the head does not reach the examining table:
SHOULDER SHAKING:The subject’s arms are bent at a right angle at the elbow and are taken one at a time by the examiner, who grasps one hand and also clasps the other around the patient’s elbow. The subject’s upper arm is pushed to and fro and the humerus is externally rotated. The degree of resistance from normal to extreme rigidity is scored as follows:
The head falls completely with a good thump as it hits the table 0 Normal 0
Slight slowing in fall, mainly noted by lack of slap as head meets the table 1 Slight stiffness and resistance 1
Moderate slowing in the fall quite noticeable to the eye 2 Moderate stiffness and resistance 2
Head falls stiffly and slowly 3 Marked rigidity with difficulty in passive movement 3
Head does not reach the examining table 4 Extreme stiffness and rigidity with
almost a frozen joint 4
GAIT:The patient is examined as he walks into the examining room. His gait, the swing of his arms, his general posture, all form the basis for an overall score for this item:
ARM DROPPING:The patient and the examiner both raise their arms to shoulder height and let them fall to their sides. In a normal subject, a stout slap is heard as the arms hit the sides. In the patient with extreme Parkinson’s syndrome, the arms fall very slowly:
Normal 0 Normal, free fall with loud slap and rebound 0
Diminution in swing while the patient is walking 1 Fall slowed slightly with less audible
contact and little rebound 1
Marked diminution in swing with obvious rigidity in the arm 2 Fall slowed, no rebound 2
Stiff gait with arms held rigidly before the abdomen 3 Marked slowing, no slap at all 3
Stopped, shuffling gait with propulsion and retropulsion 4 Arms fall as though against
resistance; as through glue 4
WRIST RIGIDITY or Fixation of position:The wrist is held in one hand and the fingers held by the examiner’s other hand, with the wrist moved to extension, flexion and ulner and radial deviation:
TREMOR:Patient is observed walking into examining room and is then reexamined for this item:
Normal 0 Normal 0
Slight stiffness and resistance 1 Mild finger tremor, obvious to sight and touch 1
Moderate stiffness and resistance 2 Tremor of hand or arm occurring spasmodically 2
Marked rigidity with difficulty in passive movement 3 Persistent tremor of one or more
limbs 3
Extreme stiffness and rigidity with almost a frozen joint 4 Whole body tremor 4

SALIVATION:Patient is observed while talking and then asked to open his mouth and elevate his tongue:
LEG PENDULOUSNESS:The patient sits on a table with his legs hanging down and swinging free. The ankle is grasped by the examiner and raised until the knee is partially extended. It is then allowed to fall. The resistance to falling and the lack of swinging form the basis for the score on this item:
Normal 0 The legs swing freely 0
Excess salivation to the extent that pooling takes place if the mouth is open and the tongue raised.
1 Slight diminution in the swing of the legs 1
When excess salivation is present and might occasionally result in difficulty in speaking
2 Moderate resistance to swing 2
Speaking with difficulty because of excess salivation 3 Marked resistance and damping of
swing 3
Frank drooling 4 Complete absence of swing 4
ELBOW RIGIDITY:The elbow joints are separately bent at right angles and passively extended and flexed, with the subject’s biceps observed and simultaneously palpated. The resistance to this procedure is rated (cogwheel rigidity noted separately):
COGWHEEL RIGIDITY:Add 1 to total severity score.
Normal 0
Total Score:Slight stiffness and resistance 1
Moderate stiffness and resistance 2
Total Score Severity:Marked rigidity with difficulty in passive movement 3
Extreme stiffness and rigidity with almost a frozen joint 4
Normal 0 - 2GLABELLA TAP:Subject is told to open eyes wide and not to blink. The glabella region is tapped at a steady, rapid speed. The number of times patient blinks in succession is noted:
Minimal Movement Disorder 3 - 50 - 5 blinks 0
6 – 10 blinks 1
Clinically Significant Movement Disorder 6 - 1111 – 15 blinks 2
16 - 20 blinks 3
Severe Movement Disorder 12 +21 and more blinks 4

SoonerCare SGA Tier Chart & PA CriteriaTier-1 products are available without prior authorization for age 5 and older.Prior authorization requests for members under age 5 are reviewed by an OHCA-contracted child psychiatrist.
Tier-2 Authorization Criteria:1. A trial of two Tier-1 products (not including clozapine), at least 14 days in duration each, titrated to recommended dose, that
did not yield adequate response or resulted in intolerable adverse effects.• Pending aripiprazole move to Tier-1: One of the Tier-1 trials must include a trial with aripiprazole unless the member has a patient-
specific, clinically significant reason why aripiprazole is not appropriate or an FDA approved diagnosis not covered by aripiprazole. • Clozapine does not count towards a Tier-1 trial.
Tier-3 Authorization Criteria:1. A trial of two Tier-1 products (not including clozapine), at least 14 days in duration each, titrated to recommended dose, that
did not yield adequate response or resulted in intolerable adverse effects; AND• Pending aripiprazole move to Tier-1: One of the Tier-1 trials must include a trial with aripiprazole unless the member has a patient-
specific, clinically significant reason why aripiprazole is not appropriate or an FDA approved diagnosis not covered by aripiprazole. • Clozapine does not count towards a Tier-1 trial.
2. A trial of two Tier-2 products, at least 14 days in duration each, titrated to recommended dose, that did not yield adequate response or resulted in intolerable adverse effects.
3. A manual prior authorization may be submitted for consideration of a Tier-3 product when the member has had at least four trials of Tier-1 and Tier-2 products (two trials must be from Tier-1) that did not yield an adequate response or resulted in intolerable adverse effects.
4. Use of Versacloz® (clozapine oral suspension) and Fazaclo® (clozapine orally disintegrating tablet) requires a patient-specific, clinically significant reason why the member cannot use the oral tablet formulation.
Approval Criteria for Atypical Antipsychotics as Adjunctive Treatment for Depression: Authorization of Abilify® (aripiprazole), Seroquel XR® (quetiapine extended-release), Symbyax® (olanzapine/fluoxetine), or Rexulti® (brexpiprazole), for a diagnosis of major depressive disorder requires current use of an antidepressant, and previous trials with at least two other antidepressants from both categories (an SSRI and duloxetine) and a trial of aripiprazole tablets (pending aripiprazole move to Tier-1) that did not yield adequate response. Tier structure applies (the member would have needed to try the Tier-2 atypical antipsychotics indicated for adjunctive treatment of MDD before trying Tier-3).
Clinical Exceptions:• Members currently stabilized on a higher-tiered medication defined by paid claim(s) for the higher tiered medication in the
past 90 days will be approved. • Members being released from a hospital and stabilized on a higher-tiered medication will be approved. • Approvals will be granted for members with clinical conditions for which lower-tiered drugs are contraindicated. • Approvals will be granted for members whose current regimen includes drugs known to adversely interact with all lowered
tiered drugs. • Lurasidone (Latuda®) may be approved for pregnant women with appropriate diagnosis.
Tier-1 Tier-2 Tier-3clozapine (Clozaril®)* aripiprazole (Abilify®, Abilify Maintena®,
Aristada®)clozapine (Fazaclo®)
quetiapine (Seroquel®) paliperidone (Invega Sustenna®, Invega Trinza®)**
iloperidone (Fanapt®)
risperidone (Risperdal®, Risperdal Consta®)
lurasidone (Latuda®) paliperidone (Invega®)
olanzapine (Zyprexa®) asenapine (Saphris®) brexpiprazole (Rexulti®)ziprasidone (Geodon®) quetiapine ER (Seroquel XR®) olanzapine/fluoxetine (Symbyax®)
clozapine oral suspension (Versacloz®)
*Does not count toward a Tier-1 trial.**In addition to tier trials, use of Invega Trinza™ requires members to have been adequately treated with the 1-month paliperidone extended-release injection (Invega® Sustenna®) for at least four months.
Second Opinion Process for Children 0-4 Years of Age and Unusual Dosing RequestsChildren less than 5 years of age will require a “second opinion” prior authorization to be reviewed by an OHCA-contracted child psychiatrist. Current users will be allowed to remain on current medication until the petition is submitted and reviewed. The second opinion process is as follows:• Clinical pharmacist reviews petition for necessary information, including diagnosis and behavioral information to submit to
on-call OHCA psychiatrist. • On-call psychiatrist at OHCA reviews submitted prior authorization request. • OHCA faxes response back within 24 hours. • Clinical pharmacist issues appropriate response for petition based on the results.

These professionals offer advice on psychotropic medication management issues for children, adolescents and adults.
The SoonerCare Psychiatric Consultation Program is also available to judges, Department of Human Services (DHS) and Oklahoma Juvenile Affairs (OJA) supervisors.

and adolescents
Increase:• Use of first-line psychosocial care for children and
adolescents on antipsychotics• Followup visit for children and adolescents on
antipsychotics• Metabolic screening for children and adolescents
newly on antipsychotics• Metabolic monitoring for children and adolescents on
antipsychotics
AADRs reduced
• Before starting: movement disorders, metabolic parameters
• Every four weeks for 3 months: BMI, BP, waist
• Every six months: AST, ALT
• Every three months: BMI, movement, glucose, insulin, A1C, lipids
• Every 12 months: prolactin• Additional monitoring: clozapine,
quetiapine, ziprasidone
• Diabetes• Hyperlipidemia• Seizure disorders
• Cardiac abnormalities• Previous response and ADRs
associated with SGAs
Develop a multi-disciplinary plan: • Follow treatment guidelines and current evidence• Continued psychosocial care• Continued screening for ADRs -- lower dose or change agent if ADRs present• Assess efficacy, at least every 90 days (4-6 weeks after dose/agent change)• Gradually discontinue/replace ineffective agents rather than adding second agent• Avoid abrupt discontinuation of SGAs except in cases of severe ADR• Plan treatment duration before treatment initiation, use short term
• Use psychosocial interventions as first-line treatment
• Avoid SGAs for age 4 and under• Avoid use of multiple SGAs• Avoid SGA use with other psychotropics
• Use low dosing for short duration• Use SGAs with appropriate diagnosis• Reduce SGA dose if ADRs occur, except
NMS (discontinue)
