According to one review, nearly three-quarters of people who try to discontinue antipsychotic medication report withdrawal effects, underscoring the complexities of how to switch from one antipsychotic to another safely. The process requires careful planning and medical supervision to minimize risks and optimize outcomes.

Statistics show that as many as 40% of people who stop taking antipsychotics may experience discontinuation syndrome. This emphasizes the critical importance of understanding what happens if antipsychotics are stopped abruptly, and why a safe, supervised tapering process is always necessary.
