Major tranquilizers also known as Antipsychotics or Neuroleptics are a class of drugs primarily used to manage psychosis and psychotic symptoms that includes delusions, hallucinations, disordered thought and aggressiness. Antipsychotics are most effective in relieving symptoms of psychosis in the short term as long-term use of the medication can cause adverse effects like involuntary movement disorder, impotence and weight gain.
