Of course, I would not want to portray this as zero risk. However, right now, I myself have no hesitency to use low-dosage APs as I have already progressed through trials of Zyprexa, Seroquel, and Risperdal.

Thank you. I have a suicidal 26 year old
schizoaffective son and he sounds so piteously
set on doing away with himself that it takes
