3. How do typical antipsychotics differ from atypical drugs like asenapine, lurasidone, and aripiprazole?
Typical antipsychotics mainly block D2 receptors and often cause more extrapyramidal symptoms. Atypical agents combine D2 modulation with 5-HT2A antagonism or partial agonism, offering lower EPS risk but greater metabolic side effects. Aripiprazole acts as a dopamine partial agonist, which alters its side-effect and efficacy profile.

Direct ophthalmoscopy is a quick, hand-held exam producing a magnified, upright view of a small fundus area. Indirect ophthalmoscopy and slit-lamp biomicroscopy with a condensing lens create a wider, stereoscopic field. Fundus photography records still images for documentation and comparison instead of live stereoscopic evaluation. -
