New Antipsychotic Drugs Criticized -Study Finds No Benefit Over Older, Cheaper Drugs
Tuesday, September 20, 2005; A01

A Federal study found no great measureable benefit in newer classes of Antipsychotic Drugs as opposed to the older drugs like Thorazine and Haldol. This is totally the opposite of what my son's doctors told me just last year, that the newer drugs like Seroquel were 'light years ahead' of the older meds. Huh ?
