it's absolutely worthy & important as a primary concern & of utmost Importance for any antipsychotics users to seriously take precautionary notes, concerns and cautions that -



"Use of antipsychotics is associated with reductions in brain tissue volumes,[104][105] including white matter reduction,[106] an effect which is dose-dependent and time-dependent."


as quoted from : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antipsychotic



Primary concern for antipsychotics users - Brain tissues losses & cognitive impairments



Further scientific details as a follow-up of the above -




“Taken together, these studies suggest that antipsychotics may contribute to early gray matter loss and, later in the course of treatment, to white matter loss. These effects may be dose-related and probably are not prevented by the use of second-generation agents. This argues for minimizing antipsychotic exposure both acutely and long term”

“Subjective cognitive impairment, particularly cognitive slowing, is commonly reported by people taking antipsychotics. Naturalistic studies have shown higher cumulative antipsychotic exposure to be associated with poorer cognitive functioning” [
