Atypical Antipsychotic Articles

Bipolar Disorder Medication Spotlight: Risperdal (Risperidone)

Friday, November 21st, 2008

With this post, we continue our biweekly series on medications used to treat bipolar disorder and related symptoms. Last week, we started our coverage of the atypical antipsychotics with one of the more popular and controversial medications in the group – Zyprexa (Onanzapine). Because that post contains a great deal of information that applies to the atypical antipsychotics as a group, we encourage you to read it first.
