The people that antipsychotics are at an increased risk of stroke, say British scientists. A previous study showed that certain drugs increase the risk of stroke. But according to this study, the experts concluded that all antipsychotics come increase the risk of stroke. The study was published in the British Medical Journal. The study included 6700 patients. All participants were over 80 years old. Experts reviewed the records of the participants and found that antipsychotics, the risk of stroke by 40% and in patients with Alzheimer's disease risk is increased on all three. Experts believe that people who antipsychotics, should be examined more frequently, the brain, as well as a prescription for these drugs should be very careful because of the state of mental health, pressure and other patient factors. Patients with dementia, scientists do not recommend antipsychotics in general. Antipsychotic drugs commonly prescribed for patients with mental disorders such as schizophrenia and severe depression.
