Antipsychotic pharmaceuticals
During depressive or manic episodes, if a patient begins to experience delusions or hallucinations and loses contact with reality, an antipsychotic medication may help treat the condition. If mood stabilizers were ineffective for a patient, antipsychotic medications are likely to be beneficial because they regulate manic episodes effectively. Frequently, physicians prescribe antipsychotic medications along with mood stabilizers. Following is a list of commonly used antipsychotic medications:
Ariprazole Clozapine Ziprasidone
The antipsychotics Olanzapine and Risperidone
The drug Quetiapine
