List of long term side effects of antipsychotics information


This is a general list of long-term side effects associated with Antipsychotic (neuroleptic) medication.

Many patients will not develop these side effects, although there is still a significant possibility of risks associated with Antipsychotic usage.

The percentage of patients affected by side effects like Tardive dyskinesia is significantly high and estimated to be a 20-50% prevalence.[1][2]

These side effects are serious and some of them are permanent, and many remain a crucial concern for companies and healthcare professionals and substantial efforts are being encouraged to reduce the potential risks for future antipsychotics through more clinical trials and drug development. Much is still being discovered about long term side- effects and insufficient research has been done to verify the mechanistic causes and severity of these long term side-effects[citation needed]

Overprescription of antipsychotics among seniors with dementia is evident[3][4][5][6][self-published source?] in spite of side effects.[citation needed]
