Quote [First of all, it is absolutely worthy & important as a primary and utmost concern for any antipsychotics users to seriously take precautionary notes, concerns and cautions that -
"Use of antipsychotics is associated with reductions in brain tissue volumes,[104][105] including white matter reduction,[106] an effect which is dose-dependent and time-dependent."as quoted from : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antipsychotic] End Quote
Primary concern for antipsychotics users - Brain tissues losses & cognitive impairments
Further scientific details as a follow-up of the above -
“Taken together, these studies suggest that antipsychotics may contribute to early gray matter loss and, later in the course of treatment, to white matter loss. These effects may be dose-related and probably are not prevented by the use of second-generation agents. This argues for minimizing antipsychotic exposure both acutely and long term”
