Asenapine, sold under the brand name Saphris among others, is an atypical antipsychotic used to treat schizophrenia and mania in bipolar disorder.[6][2] Use in older people with dementia related psychosis may increase the risk of death.[6] It is used under the tongue.[7]
Common side effects include sleepiness, dizziness, weight gain, movement disorders, and numbness within the mouth.[6] Other side effects may include stroke, neuroleptic malignant syndrome, tardive dyskinesia, diabetes, low white blood cells, seizures, and QT prolongation.[6] How it works is not clear, but is believed to involve blocking serotonin and dopamine receptors.[2]
Asenapine was approved for medical use in the United States in 2009 and Europe in 2010.[6][2] The first generic versions were approved in 2020.[8] In the United Kingdom it costs the NHS about £100 per month as of 2021.[9] This amount in the United States is about 200 USD.[10]
