The effect of antipsychotic medications on inflammatory blood markers.

  • Applicant: Katharine Lynch-Kelly
  • Project ID: 24-084

There is a growing body of evidence that both antipsychotic medications themselves, and the mental health conditions they are used to treat have an effect on and are affected by the immune system. This project aims to investigate the effect of antipsychotic medications on different inflammatory blood markers (often collected in routine blood tests) by comparing the differences in blood markers before and after the commencement of antipsychotic medications.
