Other meds for schizophrenia (antipsychotics, psychosis)?!
Question: Other meds for schizophrenia (antipsychotics, psychosis)?
so far i'm been on
risperidone
abilify
zyprexa (olanzapine)
clozaril (clozapine)
and solian (amisulpride)
none have worked and the ones that have have had side effects that were too much (clozapine almost killed me)
all the psychiatrists and doctors and whatnot are going to get together and talk about what to put me on next. what are the other possible meds i could be put on? (apart from seroquel because i've been told that that one just wont be strong enough for me)
Answers:
Try, "list of anti-psychotic medications" in a Yahoo! web search. The NIMH site is good.
Life on anti-psychotic med's. and the world wide web.

I suggest to ask for Erythropoetin which is protecting nerve cells in the brain after breakdown of the blood-brain barrier.
Risperidone may have side effects like brain tumors. Please read psychiatrist Dr Doraiswamy from Duke University http://www.dukehealth.org/HealthLibrary/…
Zyprexa is known for causing diabetes. There had been many thousands lawsuits and manufaturer had
to pay incredible high fines.
