Keeping a finger on the pulse of antipsychotic drug detection
Scientists can now detect antipsychotic drugs in individuals from their fingertip sweat.
Researchers at the University of Surrey (UK) have developed a fast, non-invasive test for monitoring individuals on antipsychotic drugs utilizing sweat collected from their fingertips. This test offers an alternative to blood tests, which are time consuming and painful. Monitoring antipsychotics is essential, so the easier and quicker it can be done, the better.
