Some Bipolar Patients Disagree with Lily Drugs Best For Manic Episodes

Johnson & Johnson says Lilly drugs found among best for manic episodes. Anti Psychotics are far more effective than mood stabilizers in tackling acute manic episodes, researchers found, and Eli Lilly's Zyprexa, Johnson & Johnson's Risperdal and generic haloperidol outperform the rest. "Strikingly, some anti psychotic drugs were overall significantly more effective than mood stabilizers,"
"These results have potential clinical implications that should be considered in the development of clinical practice guidelines."Mania, defined as an "excessively raised mood," affects around 1 percent of the population worldwide, and experts say it tends to alternate with periods of depression. These swings define the diagnosis of bipolar disorder. while haloperidol "seems to have won the race for pole position in the treatment of acute mania," management of these episodes is not always the primary treatment aim.
"Instead, the main goals of treatment are attention to long-term mood stability and prophylaxis," they said, suggesting that haloperidol may not always be best in these circumstances.
