antipsychotics

A new study published in Psychiatry Research has found that long-acting injectable (LAI) antipsychotic medications significantly reduce hospital readmissions among patients with psychosis and bipolar disorder.

The use of the antipsychotic drugs quetiapine and haloperidol is associated with an increased risk of ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death (SCD).

Researchers have uncovered insights into the potential mechanism of action of the antipsychotic medication asenapine.

Scientists have discovered a way to test the levels of common antipsychotic drugs in the sweat from patients’ fingerprints.
