Neuroleptic Brain-shrinkage

Posted by crabcakebenny on September 5, 2014, at 18:10:32

I'm sure most of you know this subject, but here's one of many articles discussing it if you're in the dark:


http://www.madinamerica.com/2013/06/antipsychotics-and-brain-shrinkage-an-update/

Now I have a personal question; would say, taking low-dose antipsychotics to augment SSRIs, not treating any kind of psychosis, still put me at risk for brain damage? I was taking 2.5 mg zyprexa for about this long, and now I'm concerned I might've caused some irreversible deterioration. This really f*ck*ng bites, it's been driving me crazy thinking about it lately. Why do pdocs prescribe these drugs to non-schizophrenics if the risk factor is this f*ck*ng severe?
