Hi all

So I'm looking for some information for a fanfic I'm working on. smile

I need to know what sort of medication you would give someone who seems to be having a psychotic break (in fact he's been possessed by an alien entity *don't you hate that when it happens?*)

I would love to know the name of a drug that would sedate the patient and how many milligrams you'd need to use. Also how much is too much/ excess safe level would be helpful as I need to up the dosage a couple of times.

Thanks in advance to any help. biggrin

I doubt that this is terribly useful, but in Mobile Army Hospitals they used ether not too long ago. It's administered via mouth, but I know nothing about the dosage.

Also, vicodin, prozac, morphine are all good sedatives in general. Sorry I can't be of more help! dramallama
