Meet online with your provider to begin treatment. At your first session, share any symptoms or struggles you’re experiencing along with your goals. Together, you and your provider will discuss if medication may be a good next step. Your provider may write you a prescription to be filled at your local pharmacy.
Once your treatment plan is created, your provider will regularly check in and encourage feedback to ensure any medication you may be prescribed is effective for you.
Antipsychotics are a class of medication primarily used to reduce the symptoms of psychosis, such as auditory and visual hallucinations. They may also be used to treat severe depression or mood disorders.
Antipsychotic medications are most often used to treat the symptoms of conditions like schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, and other psychotic disorders. They may also be used to treat other mental health disorders and as a supplement to other treatment.
While more research is needed, it's generally thought that an overabundance of dopamine in certain neurological pathways can lead to hallucinations associated with psychotic disorders. Antipsychotics work by producing a complete or partial dopamine blockade, reducing the severity of these symptoms.
Taking more than the prescribed amount of any medication can be harmful. In severe cases, an overdose of antipsychotic medication can lead to seizures, coma, hypotension, dysrhythmias and other complications.
Common side effects of antipsychotic medications may include dry mouth, sedation, weight gain, dizziness, movement disorders, and raised cholesterol or blood glucose. Other more severe side effects may occur in rare cases. If you are taking an antipsychotic medication and experiencing side effects, consult with your clinician.
There is no research to support that antipsychotic medications cause or worsen psychosis. If you begin taking an antipsychotic medication and experience worsening symptoms, consult with your clinician.
