i've looked this up and the reason I found this is because a couple weeks ago I was reading a book that made fun of pharma companies and they advertised this drug as something to calm u down when you break up with someone...and have anxiety about it. Yes, this was in the 1950's and they used silly average day things that happen as something to cover up.
Anyways is anyone familar with Stelazine?

I think Stelazine is one of the better APs for depression and anxiety, sort of similar to amisulpride in its mechanism. I have never tried it but I do not believe it is as clean as amisulpride in terms of side effects. As with amisulpride, the effect of the medication changes according to the dose. Low doses, or super low doses, can have more of an antidepressant effect than higher doses. This is in contrast to the 1950s when the doses were higher and for different reasons.
