Drugs in Psychiatry

I attended Psychiatry Workshop in Hospital Putrajaya today.

So, simple explaination for the main groups of drugs used in Psychiatry are as follows :

  1. Antipsychotic : reduce Dopamine
  2. Antidepressant : Prevent Serotonin destruction
  3. Mood Stabiliser : cell membrane stabiliser
  4. Benzodiazepine : GABA inhibition.
