Symptoms of bipolar disorder can be severe. They are different from the normal ups and downs that everyone goes through from time to time. Present study is a cross sectional, observational study to find out adverse drug reactions and efficacy of antipsychotic drugs used in schizophrenia and bipolar patients.
