Reported associations

  • Genetic variants associated with cardiometabolic abnormalities during treatment with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors: a genome-wide association study. - The pharmacogenomics journal (2022) · Fjukstad KK, Athanasiu L, Bahrami S, O'Connell KS, van der Meer D, Bettella F, Dieset I, Steen NE, Djurovic S, Spigset O, Andreassen OA · PubMed 33824429

    Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are prescribed both to patients with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. Previous studies have shown associations between SSRI treatment and cardiometabolic alterations. The aim of the present study was to investigate genetic variants associated with cardiometabolic adverse effects in patients treated with SSRIs in a naturalistic setting, using a genome-wide cross-sectional approach in a genetically homogeneous sample. We included and genotyped 1981 individuals with schizophrenia or bipolar disorder, of whom 1180 had information available on the outcomes low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-cholesterol), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-cholesterol), triglycerides, and body mass index (BMI) and investigated interactions between S

Bloodwork

  • triglyceride monitoring with SSRI therapy Moderate

    Carriers of the FRMD4A G allele show elevated triglyceride levels in response to SSRI medication, suggesting altered lipid metabolism with serotonergic therapy

    Annual fasting triglyceride testing, more frequent if SSRI dose adjusted
