Difference between Antipsychotic and Stroke

Antipsychotic vs. Stroke

Antipsychotics, also known as neuroleptics or major tranquilizers, are a class of medication primarily used to manage psychosis (including delusions, hallucinations, paranoia or disordered thought), principally in schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. A stroke is a medical condition in which poor blood flow to the brain results in cell death.

Similarities between Antipsychotic and Stroke

Antipsychotic and Stroke have 16 things in common (in Unionpedia): Antidepressant, Anxiety, Blood–brain barrier, Death, Dementia, Dizziness, Epileptic seizure, Major depressive disorder, Mania, Myocardial infarction, Neurology, Psychosis, Randomized controlled trial, Stroke, Venous thrombosis, World Health Organization.

Antidepressant

Antidepressants are drugs used for the treatment of major depressive disorder and other conditions, including dysthymia, anxiety disorders, obsessive–compulsive disorder, eating disorders, chronic pain, neuropathic pain and, in some cases, dysmenorrhoea, snoring, migraine, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), addiction, dependence, and sleep disorders.

Mania

Mania, also known as manic syndrome, is a state of abnormally elevated arousal, affect, and energy level, or "a state of heightened overall activation with enhanced affective expression together with lability of affect." Although mania is often conceived as a "mirror image" to depression, the heightened mood can be either euphoric or irritable; indeed, as the mania intensifies, irritability can be more pronounced and result in violence, or anxiety.
