Well people might have schizophernia as illness I feel these things that they have to take does more harm than good to point it damaged body organs
I think people with schizophernia should check this out just type in medication used these health professionals should always be trusted and sometimes it got to point on there medication they wanted to harm themselves best to say away from that stuff
Should not always be trusted
In my mind this women is talking a load of trash how does she know they actually work maybe try the drugs herself see how ill it makes her sure would take it for long
Think of side effects your giving this poor people best to take none at all
Would not take for long
No britney spears does not have schizophernia she as bipolar disorder
All it is for medicine companies to make lots of money cause nothing cures schizophernia now u know truth
There was this video of a medical doctor who worked in one of top hospitals in USA with people with this illness he said same thing but he had to keep it quite he did a book on it to that these medicine is a total fraud watch video
i wonder if she implores a neurologist before prescribing drugs in general?? seems psychotic disorders are assumed by symptoms rather than checking for neural spiking with scientific measures…myth science
How to control weight gain of medicines ?
Thank you that was super helpful!
It's poison (neurotoxin, poison of mitochondria aka cell poison, destroys bone marrow and hence immunity even at low dosage). The studies which proof this are publicly accessible for anyone, just search and you will find. If you don't inform yourself because you want to be the "good" or compliant patient that all dictors love, that's your fault. It just means you want to shift the bullying of the neuronodivergent to someone else, the "bad guys that don't want to take their meds". Aka: you want to be something better. Sometimes karma kills you instantly.
Which antipsychotic is best for schizophrenia in diabetic patient in between Lurasidone or Aripiprazole having metabolic issues ?
What about patients who get violent whenever medication is commenced. Medication makes the patient violent and aggressive. Drugs that have been administered is Quetiapine but got aggressive then switched to Risperidone but the symptoms persist then switched to Olanzapine by the aggressiveness started again
It's actually getting pain in head we need to control by dolo 650 ….. Then
The best anti-psychotic medication is NO anti-psychotic medication, and praying to Jesus Christ.
