FDA Approves New Kind of Drug for Schizophrenia
The first new type of medication in decades to help fight against schizophrenia was approved on Thursday by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Cobenfy (xanomeline/trospium chloride) could bring patients what they've long hoped for: A means of easing the hallucinations and "voices" that disrupt their lives without the weight gain and sluggishness of current dopamine-focused drugs.
