EDIT TO ADD: Quick search tells me "atypical" is more or less "second generation."
So, why the "need" to go from typical to atypical?
Is there something about "second generation antipsych drugs" that should be studied? Maybe something for OP to understand in research, and recognize some sort of difference or some sort of switch for some reason.
Atypical means less side effects. But, now that my eyes are open post COVID vax, who knows. The ones above are the one used most often AND they are strong.
Sure, I'm not really an expert, but I do have a lot of experience with these meds and how they affect behavior. PS I don't do that job any more, psych nursing. It's pretty brutal for the pts and for the staff.
Hmmm.... speaking of celebrities on atypical antipsychotics....
It's confirmed record that Lady Gaga is on olanzapine, which some cursory search engine results tell me is... an atypical antipsychotic! You didn't mention this one specifically, but it's in the same category...
I bet you we can do a lot of searches on which celebrities are on drugs and turn up quite a few because many of them open up and talk about it to the media!
Then maybe we can start to map out which ones are 'compromised'.
Atypical antipsychotics - Haldol, Zyprexa, Thorazine, Seroquel. Source: me, long time inpatient psych RN.
OP is asking for typical.
Why do you post atypical?
Was that a typo?

typical and atypical have a different meaning when referring to psych drugs
Many thanks!

Based on my experience:
Haldol IM for chemical restraint.
Flavor of the pharma rep for ongoing sedation.
Whoever is bringing lunch that week. When I stopped working in psych, it was Abilify long acting.

Olanzapine = Zyprexa

Another note, Britney Spears was apparently drugged up on lithium.
Lithium is one of the worst. THE WORST
