Drugs have improved things a lot since the 1970s, but many of the drugs by themselves are less than optimum (some of the uninstitutionalized psychotic killers were actually taking drugs) and there needs to be much more research in this area. Gene therapy may also be a possibility someday.
I didn’t write this and I do not agree with it.
Sorry. I see what actually wrote was “In the business the old drugs of the sixties and seventies are taking off again in popularity. Haldol, Thorazine, Stelazine, Clozaril, Lithium, Valium, Ativan, Librium.”
