[Atypical antipsychotics].
This paper synthetizes important information concerning principal atypical antipsychotic drugs actually used in clinical practice: classification, pharmacokinetics, therapeutic uses, side effects, contra-indications and drug interactions. These molecules have heterogeneous structures, but are more and more used because of good neurological tolerance, greater efficacy against negative symptoms, and for clozapin greater efficacy against resistant schizophrenia.
