- 9:23So

- 9:24case,
- 9:25if
- 9:25this
- 9:25was

- 9:42But
- 9:43we
- 9:43need
- 9:44to
- 9:44prioritize
- 9:45acute
- 9:46antipsychotic
- 9:46treatment.
- 9:47This
- 9:47is
- 9:47not
- 9:48the
- 9:48kind
- 9:48of
- 9:48thing
- 9:48that's

- 9:52although
- 9:53I
- 9:53think
- 9:53we

- 9:53that
- 9:54to
- 9:54try
- 9:54and
- 9:55get
- 9:55him
- 9:55to
- 9:55understand
- 9:56that
- 9:56cannabis
- 9:57is
- 9:57not
- 9:57serving
- 9:58his
- 9:58needs
- 9:58at
- 9:59all.
- 9:59Because
- 9:59it
- 9:59is
- 9:59certainly
- 10:00worsening
- 10:00things.
- 10:01Those
- 10:01high
- 10:02THC
- 10:03potency
- 10:04products
- 10:04are
- 10:05a
- 10:06huge
- 10:06problem.
- 10:07They're,
- 10:07they're,
- 10:07they're
- 10:08disrupting
- 10:08his
- 10:08brain
- 10:09signaling.
- 10:10They
- 10:10are
- 10:12worsening
- 10:12his
- 10:12psychosis.
- 10:13There's
- 10:14absolutely
- 10:14no
- 10:14doubt
- 10:15about
- 10:15that.
- 10:15But
- 10:16I
- 10:16would
- 10:16be
- 10:16reaching
- 10:17for
- 10:17a
- 10:17second
- 10:18generation
- 10:18antipsychotic.
- 10:19Um,
- 10:20we
- 10:20can
- 10:20talk
- 10:20about
- 10:20Abilify
- 10:21in
- 10:21particular.
- 10:22There's
- 10:22a
- 10:22lot
- 10:22of
- 10:22good
- 10:23evidence
- 10:23for
- 10:23Abilify
- 10:24in
- 10:24this
- 10:24case,
- 10:25which
- 10:25would
- 10:25be
- 10:26good.
- 10:26You
- 10:26wouldn't
- 10:26be
- 10:26that
- 10:27wrong
- 10:27if
- 10:27you
- 10:27wanted
- 10:28to
- 10:28find
- 10:28a
- 10:29very
- 10:30heavy
- 10:31duty
- 10:31D2
- 10:31blocker
- 10:32like
- 10:32Risperidol
- 10:33or
- 10:33Zyprexa
- 10:33here.
- 10:33That
- 10:34would
- 10:34not
- 10:34be
- 10:34wrong
- 10:35at
- 10:36all.
- 10:37Now
- 10:37you
- 10:37would
- 10:37be
- 10:38probably
- 10:38manipulating
- 10:39his
- 10:39reward
- 10:39pathway
- 10:40a
- 10:40bit.
- 10:40You're
- 10:40kind
- 10:41of
- 10:41blocking
- 10:41it.
- 10:42You're
- 10:42shackling
- 10:42it
- 10:43very
- 10:43rigidly
- 10:44with
- 10:44his
- 10:44Zyprexa
- 10:45or
- 10:45Risperidol.
- 10:46It
- 10:46would
- 10:46definitely
- 10:47help
- 10:48attenuate
- 10:48his
- 10:49psychosis,
- 10:49though
- 10:50pretty
- 10:50quickly.
- 10:51There'd
- 10:51be
- 10:51a
- 10:52lot
- 10:52of
- 10:52metabolic
- 10:52problems,
- 10:53potentially.
- 10:53You
- 10:53gotta
- 10:54watch
- 10:54out
- 10:54for
- 10:54that.
- 10:54But
- 10:54it
- 10:55would
- 10:56really
- 10:57dampen
- 10:58that
- 10:58reward
- 10:58pathway,
- 10:59which
- 10:59may
- 10:59drive
- 11:00his
- 11:00cravings
- 11:00even
- 11:01more
- 11:01intensely.
- 11:02And
- 11:03so
- 11:03that's
- 11:03why
- 11:03I
- 11:04would
- 11:04probably
- 11:04gravitate
- 11:05towards
- 11:05Abilify,
- 11:06because
- 11:06there
- 11:06is
- 11:06some
- 11:07evidence
- 11:07that
- 11:07not
- 11:07only
- 11:07can
- 11:08it
- 11:08treat
- 11:08psychosis,
- 11:09but
- 11:09it
- 11:09can
- 11:09reduce
- 11:10his
- 11:10cannabis
- 11:10cravings
- 11:11too,
- 11:12which
- 11:12is
- 11:13kind
- 11:13of
- 11:13a
- 11:13two
- 11:13for
- 11:13one,
- 11:14right?
- 11:14Because
- 11:15if
- 11:15he,
- 11:15if
- 11:15you
- 11:16treat
- 11:16his
- 11:16psychosis,
- 11:17you're
- 11:17reducing
- 11:17his
- 11:18cannabis
- 11:18cravings.
- 11:19He
- 11:19starts
- 11:19to
- 11:19gain
- 11:20some
- 11:20insight
- 11:20when
- 11:20the
- 11:21psychosis
- 11:22weans
- 11:22down
- 11:23that
- 11:24he
- 11:24has
- 11:25that
- 11:25cannabis
- 11:25isn't
- 11:26serving.
- 11:26And
- 11:26maybe
- 11:26he
- 11:26can
- 11:27reduce
- 11:27enough
- 11:27of
- 11:27his
- 11:27cannabis
- 11:28use.
- 11:29Hopefully,
- 11:29he
- 11:29can
- 11:29even

- 15:24right?
- 15:25One
- 15:25other
- 15:26little
- 15:26pearl
- 15:26that
- 15:27was
- 15:27a
- 15:27little
- 15:27bit
- 15:27new
- 15:28to
- 15:28me.
- 15:28Even
- 15:29that
- 15:29I
- 15:29think
- 15:29we
- 15:29should
- 15:29all
- 15:30look
- 15:30into
- 15:30a
- 15:30little
- 15:30more
- 15:31is
- 15:31that
- 15:31some
- 15:32evidence
- 15:32suggests
- 15:32that
- 15:33THC
- 15:33upregulates
- 15:34a
- 15:34P
- 15:34glycoprotein
- 15:36at
- 15:36the
- 15:37blood
- 15:37brain
- 15:37barrier.
- 15:38And
- 15:38long
- 15:38story
- 15:38short,
- 15:39what
- 15:39that
- 15:39does
- 15:39is,
- 15:40is
- 15:41it
- 15:41actually
- 15:42pumps
- 15:43certain
- 15:43drugs
- 15:44out
- 15:44of
- 15:44the
- 15:44brain,
- 15:44making
- 15:45them
- 15:45less
- 15:46effective.
- 15:47Okay?
- 15:47So
- 15:47depending
- 15:48on
- 15:48which
- 15:48drugs
- 15:50are.
- 15:51Are.
- 15:51Are
- 15:51navigating
- 15:52the
- 15:52blood
- 15:53brain
- 15:53barrier
- 15:54using
- 15:55that
- 15:56P
- 15:56glycoprotein
- 15:58transporter.
- 15:59Okay,
- 16:01Depending
- 16:02on
- 16:02those
- 16:02drugs,
- 16:03you
- 16:04could
- 16:04actually.
- 16:05Cannabis
- 16:06could
- 16:06actually
- 16:07make
- 16:07that
- 16:07harder
- 16:08and
- 16:08make
- 16:08those
- 16:09drugs
- 16:09less
- 16:09effective.
- 16:11Risperidone
- 16:12and
- 16:12paliperidone.
- 16:14So
- 16:14risperidol
- 16:14and
- 16:14invigorate,
- 16:15okay,
- 16:16Those
- 16:16are
- 16:16P
- 16:16glycoprotein
- 16:18substrate.
- 16:19So
- 16:19THC
- 16:19is
- 16:20literally
- 16:20reducing
- 16:21their
- 16:21brain
- 16:22concentrations,
- 16:23making
- 16:23those
- 16:23meds
- 16:23less
- 16:24effective.
- 16:25If
- 16:25Henry
- 16:25were
- 16:25to
- 16:26take
- 16:26either
- 16:27invigora
- 16:28or
- 16:28risperidol,
- 16:29well,
- 16:29that's
- 16:29a
- 16:29big
- 16:29problem,
- 16:30right?
- 16:30Abilify
- 16:30does
- 16:31not
- 16:31have
- 16:31that
- 16:31problem.
- 16:32Neither
- 16:32does
- 16:33Clozapine.
- 16:34So
- 16:34their
- 16:34brain
- 16:35levels
- 16:35are
- 16:35not
- 16:36reduced

- 17:18you're
- 17:18not
- 17:18wrong
- 17:18to

- 17:23treat
- 17:24the
- 17:24psychosis,
- 17:25but
- 17:25you
- 17:25could
- 17:25be
- 17:26more
- 17:26correct
- 17:26by
- 17:27choosing
- 17:27an
- 17:27antipsychotic
- 17:28that
- 17:28has
- 17:29less
- 17:29of
- 17:29a
- 17:29metabolic
- 17:30burden.
- 17:30That
- 17:30would
- 17:30be
- 17:30abilifying
- 17:31and
- 17:32one
- 17:32that
- 17:32might
- 17:32also
- 17:33be
- 17:33fine
- 17:33tuned
- 17:34to
- 17:34assist

- 17:37be
- 17:37abilifying
- 17:38because
- 17:38it's
- 17:39fine
- 17:39tuning
- 17:39those
- 17:40brain
- 17:40circuits
- 17:41as

- 17:47that's
- 17:47very
- 17:47key.
- 17:48Now,
- 17:49I
- 17:49think
