I want to know what is the difference between antidepressants and antipsychotics?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Different actrions: Not easy to explain briefly. Generally their primary actions are in different areas of the brain and on different neurotransmitter's and receptors. However, it really is not all this simple. Their is a lot of cross-over. If you are really interested in more the best text book i know of for psychopharmacology is sthal's essentials of psychopharmacology which can be purchased on e-bay.
