Chlorpromazine

A drug to treat various conditions such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and severe nausea or vomiting. It belongs to a class of medications known as antipsychotics, which work by affecting the levels of certain chemicals in the brain to help alleviate symptoms.

Haloperidol

More effective at treating positive symptoms of schizophrenia, such as hallucinations and delusions, but may also have a higher risk of causing adverse effects, Haloperidol is considered a high-potency antipsychotic drug used to treat psychotic disorders. Haloperidol is typically prescribed at a lower dose than Fluphenazine due to its higher potency.

Perphenazine

An antipsychotic medication that can be used in the area of drug rehabilitation to manage various conditions such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and severe agitation. It works by affecting the levels of certain chemicals in the brain to help alleviate symptoms such as delusions, hallucinations, and disordered thinking.

Prochlorperazine

Pimozide can assist in the management of co-occurring mental health conditions that may arise from or contribute to substance use, such as schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders. It can alleviate symptoms like hallucinations, delusions, and disordered thinking, and potentially increase patients' engagement in therapy and other aspects of drug addiction treatment.

Risperidone

Risperidone also an atypical antipsychotics thats used in the treatment of schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and irritability associated with autism, may differ from similar medications in its class because its able to be administered via a long-acting injection that is given every two weeks.

Ziprasidone

Ziprasidone is a medication that belongs to the class of drugs known as atypical antipsychotics. It is approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. One unique feature of Ziprasidone is that it may have a lower risk of causing weight gain compared to some other atypical antipsychotics. This can be particularly beneficial for individuals who are already at risk for metabolic disorders, such as diabetes or heart disease, as weight gain can exacerbate these conditions. Additionally, Ziprasidone may have a lower risk of causing sedation or cognitive impairment compared to some other antipsychotics.

Antipsychotics used in treatment of SMI
