> One study I read compared zyprexa (dosed based on clinical judgement) to fixed-dose Haldol, 5mgs, with prophylactic benztropine.

to how much zyprexa?

5mg Haldol is almost twice as much required to induce serious eps, you would have to compare it to about 30mg of zyprexa to make a valid comparison.

>they can also create some tremendous problems, and many people with psychotic disorders can do well without them.

they don't fix an imbalance and they do result in permanent damage to brain structure and indeed every organ in one's body.
