Sulpiride

Sulpiride is an anti-psychotic drug used mainly in the treatment of schizophrenia and depression. It is claimed to have fewer extrapyramidal side-effects (dystonia, parkinsonism, tardive dyskinesia and akathisia) than many of the older anti-psychotic medications . Dosage of the drug varies according to the symptoms: for schizophrenia marked by negative symptoms (such as depression and social withdrawal) a lower dosage is given than for schizophrenia characterised by positive symptoms such as delusion and hallucination.

Sulpiride is marketed under a number of brand names including "Dolmatil®" (Sanofi-Synthelabo)
