Antipsychotic Medication
The document discusses the history and treatment of mental illness. For centuries, the mentally ill were mistreated and confined without treatment. Lobotomies were performed until 1967 to alter patients' behavior, though they destroyed brain function. The discovery of antipsychotic medication in the 1950s revolutionized treatment. Chlorpromazine provided calming effects and led to further medications that alleviated symptoms and allowed patients to live normal lives. While challenges remain, antipsychotic drugs have given mentally ill individuals a chance at recovery and participation in society.

This article discusses antipsychotic-induced hyperprolactinaemia. It notes that while this side effect has been recognized for over 25 years, it remains relatively neglected. The article reviews prolactin physiology, the effects of various antipsychotics on prolactin levels, clinical manifestations of hyperprolactinaemia, and management strategies. While symptoms are common, clinicians often underestimate their prevalence. Appropriate investigation and management of antipsychotic-induced hyperprolactinaemia could reduce patient burden and prevent long-term consequences.

This document provides information about various antipsychotic drugs used to treat schizophrenia. It discusses first and second generation antipsychotics including chlorpromazine, haloperidol, clozapine, and olanzapine. It describes their mode of action, synthesis, structure activity relationships, and side effects. Newer atypical antipsychotics like risperidone, quetiapine, aripiprazole, and ziprasidone are also mentioned along with their usual dosages and side effect profiles. The development of antipsychotics is an ongoing area of research to determine the most appropriate treatment for individual patients.

I just wanted to share some of my Clinical Instructors lecture materials. I don't own this document, I wish to help you guys with the summary of Psychiatric Drugs.
Disk scheduling
The document discusses disk scheduling algorithms used by operating systems to efficiently access disk drives. It describes several common algorithms like First Come First Serve (FCFS), Shortest Seek Time First (SSTF), SCAN, C-SCAN, and C-LOOK and compares their performance in minimizing disk head movement. The document also provides an overview of RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) levels which improve disk performance and reliability by using multiple disks.
The Real Beauties
The document discusses some of the ultimate beauties of the universe that can be seen and help soothe oneself. It reveals a few of these beauties and notes that this is just a simple glimpse of the great universe. The author thanks Gurbinder Sharma.

The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms.
Human Chromosomal Structural Errors
Human chromosomes can have structural errors that affect their shape or number. Some examples include deletions, where a part of the chromosome is missing, duplications where an extra copy of a gene or part of the chromosome is present, inversions where a segment of the chromosome breaks off and reattaches in reverse orientation, and translocations where parts of different chromosomes exchange places. These chromosomal abnormalities can cause a variety of genetic disorders and birth defects depending on the genes involved.

Inrusion Prevention
Intrusion prevention aims to stop hackers and cybercriminals from gaining unauthorized access to computer systems and networks. It monitors network and system activities for malicious activity and detects and prevents intrusions and exploits in real-time before any damage occurs. Intrusion prevention systems are designed to identify suspicious patterns that may indicate a network or system attack from outside or inside the network and take action to prevent it.

The document discusses Microsoft's solution for connecting on-premises Active Directory to cloud services and applications. The solution involves two main components: 1) Microsoft Federation Gateway, which acts as a broker that allows a single sign-on to any connected service once Active Directory is federated through it, and 2) Microsoft Services Connector, which registers an enterprise's domain with the gateway and issues tokens for authentication to services. The solution aims to simplify access to cloud services while maintaining on-premises identity management with Active Directory.
Ethics In Psychiatry By Gurbinder
Psychiatry is not doing good to anyone but is a lucrative buisness for pharma companies & psychiatrists.
Ethics in psychiatry by gurbinder
This document discusses ethics in psychiatry. It begins by defining ethics as principles of right conduct, as studied by philosophers since ancient Greece. For psychiatry, ethics provides guidelines for treating patients with respect while balancing care, consent, and clinical judgment. Informed consent is important but can be challenging in psychiatry given issues of competence, coercion, and lack of alternatives. Treatment should aim to restore function and autonomy while avoiding harm. Overall, psychiatry ethics seeks to uphold patient rights and welfare through principled, compassionate care.

Ritalin is the most commonly prescribed drug for ADHD, but it is also a stimulant similar to cocaine. While it helps many with ADHD by increasing dopamine levels and improving focus, it also has abuse potential and long term undesirable brain changes are possible. There is also debate around whether ADHD is sometimes misdiagnosed, leading to unnecessary Ritalin treatment that could increase risk of depression or change brain development. Due to their similarities, some are also concerned that Ritalin could act as a gateway drug to cocaine use.
Ritalin Vs Cocaine
Ritalin is the most commonly prescribed drug for ADHD, but it is also a stimulant similar to cocaine. While it helps many with ADHD by increasing dopamine levels and improving focus, its similarity to cocaine raises concerns about potential long-term brain changes or risk of addiction. Additionally, misdiagnosis of ADHD is common and can lead to unnecessary Ritalin treatment that may increase depression risk or make individuals more prone to cocaine use later in life. The drug's safety and appropriate use remains an ongoing source of debate.
