The atypicals

Older generation antipsychotics, called typicals, were prescribed for schizophrenia and bipolar disorder but often caused Parkinson's-like shakes. They were mostly replaced in the 1990s with the emergence of atypical antipsychotics. The new drugs, which work on different brain receptors, were touted as better and safer. Here are the atypicals now on the market.
