Abstract
Magnitude of weight gain was significantly associated with the affinity of antipsychotic medications to M1, M3, 5-HT2C and H1 receptors. Risk of sedation was significantly associated with the affinity to the M1 and M4 receptors. Magnitude of hyperprolactinemia was significantly associated with the affinity to M1 and M4 receptors. Risk of extrapyramidal side effects was associated with the affinity to 5-HT2C and M1 receptors. QT prolongation was not significantly associated with antipsychotic receptor affinities. Our meta-analysis demonstrated that increased affinity of antipsychotics for certain receptors are significantly associated with higher risk of sedation, hyperprolactinemia, extrapyramidal side effects and weight gain.
