tremor with lithium, what to give
propranolol may help with tremor; benign increase in WBC
hyperthermia; diaphoresis; slow, continuous, horizontal, eye movements (referred to as ocular clonus); hypertonia; hyperreflexia; tremor; and ankle clonus. Neuromuscular findings are generally more pronounced in the lower extremities; Mental status changes can include anxiety, agitated delirium, restlessness, and disorientation ; Patients may startle easily. Autonomic manifestations can include diaphoresis, tachycardia, hyperthermia, hypertension, vomiting, and diarrhea ; Neuromuscular hyperactivity can manifest as tremor, muscle rigidity, myoclonus, hyperreflexia, and bilateral Babinski sign. Hyperreflexia and clonus are particularly common; these findings, as well as rigidity, are more often pronounced in the lower extremities
Serotonin syndrome
tetrad of symptoms typically evolves over one to three days. Each feature is present in 97 to 100 percent of patients:
1)Mental status change is the initial symptom in 82 percent of patients - gitated delirium with confusion rather than psychosis.
Catatonic signs and mutism can be prominent. Evolution to profound encephalopathy with stupor and eventual coma is typical.
2) Muscular rigidity is generalized and is often extreme. The increased tone can be demonstrated by moving the extremities and is characterized by
"lead pipe rigidity" or stable resistance through all ranges of movement.
Superimposed tremor may lead to a ratcheting quality or a cogwheel phenomenon. Patients can also have prominent sialorrhea, dysarthria, and dysphagia.
3) Hyperthermia
4) Autonomic instability- tachycardia, labile or high blood pressure, tachypnea, Diaphoresis is often profuse
typical course of mental status changes appearing first, followed by rigidity, then hyperthermia, and autonomic dysfunction

Lithium
high risk for parkinsonian extrapyramidal side effects (EPS), including rigidity, bradykinesia, tremor, and akathisia (subjective and objective restlessness). In addition, they carry a 5 to 7 percent per year cumulative risk of late-onset choreoathetotic movements known as tardive dyskinesia
1st gen antipsycotics
dosed in hundreds of milligrams, tend to be quite sedating, have strong anticholinergic properties, and are somewhat less likely to cause EPS
Low potency antipsycotics
dosed in one to tens of milligrams, are less sedating, less anticholinergic, and more likely to cause EPS
High potency antipsycotics
Late onset of choreiform and athetoid movements of trunk, extremities, or mouth: Oral, facial, and lingual dyskinesia are especially conspicuous in elderly patients. These may include:
Protruding and twisting movements of the tongue
Pouting, puckering, or smacking movements of the lips
Retraction of the corners of the mouth
Bulging of the cheeks
Chewing movements
Blepharospasm
Tongue movements are insidious in onset and at first may be limited to subtle back and forth or lateral movements

Dyskinesia of the limbs also occur, such as:
Twisting, spreading, and "piano-playing" finger movements
Tapping foot movements
Dystonic extensor postures of the toes

Limb involvement is often more severe in younger individuals in whom dystonic postures and ballistic movements may occur.

Dyskinesia of the neck and trunk may include the following:
Retrocollis
Torticollis
Axial dystonia
Shoulder shrugging
Rocking and swaying movements
Rotatory or thrusting hip movements
Tardive Dyskinesias
akinesia (inability to initiate movement) and akathisia (inability to remain motionless). pseudoparkinsonism: drug-induced parkinsonism (muscular lead-pipe rigidity, bradykinesia/akinesia, resting tremor, and postural instability; more frequent in adults and the elderly).
Extrapyramidal symptoms 
Orthostatic hypotension - mechanism
Alpha adrenergic blockade
Temp, no finding of infection, low wbc 800 cells/mm - clozapine = neutropenic fever - do not confuse with NMS; The usual definition of drug-induced neutropenia or agranulocytosis excludes the use of known cytotoxic agents (eg, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin) or diseases (eg, vitamin B12 deficiency, chronic liver disease) that can cause neutropenia, and requires that the drug has been administered within four weeks of the onset of neutropenia. Discontinuation of the drug generally results in correction of the neutrophil count within 30 days. neutrophil count <500 Significant risk of infection; fever should always be managed on an inpatient basis with parenteral antibiotics; few clinical signs of infection
