Anti-psychotic medication are the best selling drugs in America Anonymous Wed Mar 4 13:06:39 2020 No.11439783 [Reply] [Original]

First off, why? How well do they work? Do their side effects offset the benefits?

Looking for a study even a aspie can understand

In a nutshell, psychotic or schizophrenic symptoms are associated with excessive dopamine neurotransmission in the brain (particularly in the mesolimbic region). Anti-psychotics block dopamine receptors to prevent their effects and control psychotic symptoms. But I don't really believe in this stuff anyway, it's all jewish trickery to sell "medicines"

>>	Anonymous Wed Mar 4 14:23:58 2020 No.11439941 >>11439783 I've had olanzapine for mania/psychosis (mostly mania) and it works very well really.

>>	Anonymous Wed Mar 4 14:55:18 2020 No.11440030 >>11440019 continuing in 2014-2015 there was only one antipsychotic in the top 10 by number of prescriptions written https://www.statista.com/statistics/257998/top-branded-drugs-based-on-units-sold-in-the-us/ op is just full of shit

>>	Anonymous Wed Mar 4 15:00:36 2020 No.11440045 >>11439928 Treatment is still ongoing, but I'm only on Anti-Depressants now. I think they're still debating on what my diagnosis is though.
