This invention generally pertains to the field of psychiatry. In particular, this invention pertains to the discovery that agents which inhibit the binding of cortisol to its receptors can be used in methods for treating dementia. Mifepristone, a potent glucocorticoid receptor antagonist, can be used in these methods. The invention also provides a kit for treating dementa in a human including a glucoccrticoid receptor antagonist and instructional material teaching the indications, dosage and schedule of administration of the glucocoticoid receptor antagonist.

This invention generally pertains to the field of psychiatry. In particular, this invention pertains to the discovery that agents which inhibit the binding of cortisol to its receptors can be used in methods for ameliorating pathologies or conditions associated with psychosis. These pathologies or conditions include psychotic major depression, schizoaffective disorders, Alzheimer's Disease and cocaine addiction. Mifepristone, a potent glucocorticoid receptor antagonist, can be used in these methods. The invention also provides a kit for the amelioration of psychosis in a human including a glucocorticoid receptor antagonist and instructional material teaching the indications, dosage and schedule of administration of the glucocorticoid receptor antagonist.

A new method is found to determine an increased risk for side effects of an SSRI treatment in a person by genotyping the person for the presence of the 102 C/C DNA sequence in the 5-HT2A receptor gene. This provides for a method to improve the treatment of an SSRI responsive disorder and in particular depression.

This invention relates to methods for improving the therapeutic response of human patients with major depression by determining the apolipoprotein E genotype of a human patient and administering mirtazapine, in an amount effective to treat major depression, to those patients who are found to carry the gene for apolipoprotein E4. Also disclosed are methods for improving the therapeutic response of a human patient with major depression comprising administering mirtazapine, in an amount effective to treat major depression, to a human patient who is a carrier of the gene for apolipoprotein E4.
