| English abstract: |
| This article reported a case of a patient with schizophrenia who experienced self-perceived fever and discomfort after taking atypical antipsychotic drugs with strong alpha 1 receptor antagonism， which included olanzapine， risperidone， paliperidone and clozapine. Such phenomenon was believed to be a medication side effect. Therefore， the patient switched to aripiprazole and the fever disappeared. This case report is intended to remind psychiatrists to pay attention to the side effects caused by atypical antipsychotic drugs with strong alpha 1 receptor antagonism as well as to suggest that various factors should be considered， including mechanisms of drug action， patient pathophysiology and individual differences， in order to improve treatment compliance and prognosis. |
