P091 Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) presenting in a patient with psoriasis receiving ustekinumab.
(PubMed, Br J Dermatol)
- P3 | "Prochlorperazine 5 mg three times daily and amlodipine 10 mg once daily were commenced and ustekinumab suspended...PRES has been described in patients using adalimumab, infliximab and ustekinumab, most commonly in the context of inflammatory bowel disease...However, it is important that clinicians are aware of this rare debilitating neurological adverse event, so prompt withdrawal of possible triggers including biologic agents can be made to facilitate neurological recovery. The half-life of ustekinumab is problematic for prompt withdrawal and there remain questions regarding ongoing management of the patient's inflammatory dermatosis and arthritis, as case reports document worsening of PRES on reintroduction of traditional immunosuppressive systemic agents."

Large-scale integration of omics and electronic health records to identify potential risk protein biomarkers and therapeutic drugs for cancer prevention.
(PubMed, Am J Hum Genet)
- "Analyzing >3.5 million electronic health records, we conducted analyses of emulated trials for 11 drugs across 290 comparisons and identified three drugs significantly associated with reduced colorectal cancer risk: caffeine vs. paroxetine (hazard ratio [HR], 0.51; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.41-0.64), haloperidol vs. prochlorperazine (HR, 0.47; 95% CI, 0.33-0.68), and trazodone hydrochloride vs. paroxetine (HR, 0.49; 95% CI, 0.38-0.63). Conversely, caffeine was associated with increased cancer risk in comparison with finasteride (colorectal cancer) and fluoxetine (breast cancer). Meta-analysis identified six drugs significantly associated with cancer risk, including acetazolamide, which was associated with reduced colorectal cancer risk (HR, 0.79; 95% CI, 0.72-0.87). This study identifies previously unreported protein biomarkers and candidate drug targets across six major cancer types and highlights several approved drugs with potential chemopreventive effects."

Involvement of KCC2-dependent chloride extrusion in the use and effects of drugs of abuse: a scoping review
(Neuroscience 2025)
- "We found that expression patterns of KCC2 were significantly impacted by various potentially abusable drugs, including morphine, remifentanil, ethanol, diazepam, zolpidem, memantine, phenobarbital, pentylenetetrazol, nicotine, cannabinoids, methamphetamine, prochlorperazine, TCB2, propofol, isoflurane, and sevoflurane, though some reports varied on the directionality of that expression change with specific drugs. These results suggest a strong connection between KCC2 and drugs of abuse. This work advances KCC2 as a potential drug target for treatment of substance use disorders and highlights areas of interest for future work."

Identifying Terminologies Used Prior to the Onset of Interstitial Lung Disease in Patients With Lung Cancer: Descriptive Analysis of Electronic Medical Record Data.
(PubMed, JMIR Cancer)
- "In the 30 days prior to ILD onset, notable differences in word frequencies per 1000 notes between the ILD-GC Set and No ILD Set were observed in the following term categories: respiratory symptoms (eg, breathlessness, shortness of breath, oxygen), ranging from 170.59 to 46.51; pain or analgesics (eg, Lyrica [pregabalin], soreness, precordial pain, opioids), ranging from 462.88 to 45.16; and appetite-related terms (eg, inappetence, food intake, queasiness, Novamin [prochlorperazine]), ranging from 102.23 to 51.90. Terms related to respiratory symptoms, pain or analgesics, and appetite were identified as associated factors for ILD onset in patients with stage IV lung cancer using RWD from acute care institutions for malignant tumors. These findings may support the early detection of ILD and underscore the potential of RWD to generate real-world evidence that informs drug discovery and pharmaceutical development."

Advanced Practice Provider-Led Outpatient Lymphodepleting Chemotherapy Administration for Patients Receiving Tumor-Infiltrating Lymphocyte Therapy for the Treatment of Advanced Melanoma
(JADPRO 2025)
- "Introduction / Background In February 2024, lifileucel became the first FDA-approved adoptive cell therapy for the treatment of any solid tumor and was specifically approved to treat advanced melanoma. The package insert specifies a lymphodepleting (LD) chemotherapy regimen of cyclophosphamide 60 mg/kg IV with mesna for 2 days, followed by fludarabine 25 mg/m2 IV for 5 days before cell infusion...Infection prophylaxis: • Acyclovir - Start on Day -7...Olanzapine-Start on Day -8 at bedtime & continue nightly for up to one week...Ondansetron - Day -7 through Day -3 as pre-medication to chemotherapy...Prochlorperazine - Prescription provided for breakthrough nausea...It will be essential to better define the training for APPs in solid tumor cellular therapies. Continued exploration of APP-led outpatient models may reduce hospital stays, improve patient outcomes and satisfaction, and lower healthcare costs-benefiting not only melanoma patients but potentially those with..."

The off-label use of psychotropic medicines in paediatric patients in Australian primary care.
(PubMed, Psychiatry Res)
- "Psychotropic medicines were defined by the Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical Classification codes N05 (Psycholeptics) and N06 (Psychoanaleptics), except for prochlorperazine...A total of 1650 psychotropic medicines were prescribed, with sertraline (14.55 %), fluoxetine (12.48 %), methylphenidate (9.27 %), diazepam (5.52 %), and citalopram (5.27 %) being the most common...Off-label psychotropic medicine use in paediatric patients is common in Australian primary care, with most OLU classified as age-based rather than indication-based. These findings demonstrate high off-label rates and, given limited paediatric evidence, underscore the need for targeted guidelines, enhanced prescriber education, and further research to improve safe and effective use in this population."

Dexmedetomidine for Reducing Perioperative Nausea and Vomiting in Cesarean Delivery
(ASA 2025)
- "Inclusion criteria were >37 weeks gestational age, cesarean delivery, and use of ondansetron and dexamethasone on the same day of surgery...Risk analysis and Kaplan-Meier survival analysis were performed to assess the outcome of intraoperative and perioperative nausea and vomiting by the use of rescue antiemetics (droperidol, promethazine, dimenhydrinate, metoclopramide, prochlorperazine)... Contrary to consistent current research findings, dexmedetomidine use was not associated with a reduced incidence of PONV in cesarean delivery patients. This finding suggests that dexmedetomidine may not have the added benefit of reducing PONV in this population. Further prospective studies are needed to confirm these results and explore the underlying mechanisms."

- "She was treated with five doses of a migraine cocktail (diphenhydramine, prochlorperazine, and ketorolac) and empiric antibiotics (including four doses of vancomycin) over the initial 24 hours of hospitalization...She was transferred to the PICU where she was treated with vasopressors, fluid resuscitation, and antibiotics, as well as methylprednisolone and intravenous immunoglobulin... The association of hypotension along with failure of renal afferent arteriolar vasodilation suggests the need for caution with repeated doses of this migraine cocktail. This case highlights the combined risk of prochlorperazine, diphenhydramine, and ketorolac, and the summative impact of nephrotoxic medications in a previously healthy patient."

Emesis and Constipation Induced by Methadone and the Active Metabolite of Tramadol (M1) in Animals.
(PubMed, J Appl Toxicol)
- "In contrast to previous findings with morphine, M1-induced retching was significantly inhibited by the selective dopamine D2 receptor antagonist prochlorperazine, but not by the atypical antipsychotic olanzapine, suggesting a distinct receptor-specific modulation. Recognizing these distinct profiles is essential for evaluating opioid-induced adverse effects and can help refine clinical strategies. Ultimately, these insights may contribute to the development of evidence-based interventions aimed at minimizing opioid-related complications and improving the quality of life for patients receiving opioid-based pain therapies."

Morbidity and Mortality of Ondansetron in Patients with Non-congenital Long QT Syndrome: A Review Article.
(PubMed, Cardiovasc Drugs Ther)
- "Selective antagonists like ondansetron, granisetron, and tropisetron treat chemotherapy and post-surgical nausea, while non-selective antagonists include metoclopramide and prochlorperazine. This risk has led to FDA dosing recommendations and an emphasis on cardiac monitoring, particularly in patients with predisposing factors such as electrolyte imbalances, cardiac conditions, or concurrent QT-prolonging drugs. This review explores the underlying mechanisms of QT-interval prolongation associated with the selective 5-HT3 receptor antagonist ondansetron, evaluates its impact on morbidity and mortality in at-risk populations, and discusses risk mitigation strategies."
