I don't know if one could assume that the rate of prescription of neuroleptic medications would be less in developing countries?
I think med empowered knows more about this information. I originally heard the point originally discussed by him/her.
Simpler socities perhaps, less information overload, less to be paranoid about. (I don't know if that would hold any water though).Vitamin D status of mothers might be higher in developing countries.
I just don't know what kind of information exists that says that neuroleptics imrpove the *long term* outcome of schizophrenia. They certainly aren't correcting the underlying disturbance.
