May 7, 2008 (Washington) -- Children who are taking antipsychotic drugs should be regularly monitored for potentially dangerous changes in body fat and lipids (blood fat). So says a researcher who found that kids experienced almost immediate increases in body mass index (BMI) and triglyceride levels after they started taking the drugs. Only 5% of people under age 20 "get their lipids regularly checked. That's a problem if they're taking an antipsychotic medication," says John Newcomer, MD, of the Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis. He presented early results from a study of children on three antipsychotic drugs at the annual meeting of the American Psychiatric Association. you play casino poker kate marshall nevada treasurer gambling fireworks display horseshoe casino playing roulette for money
