Hi I have a friend that has a lot of health issuse and tried bath salts and she has now had some sort of mental break down so I am trying to find out if there is a way to get it out of her system faster? Her symptoms consist of paranoia screaming and yelling at people delusions and seeing things that aren't there!
Hello,Drugs like olanzapine or resperidone help a lot in such conditions (psychosis). It is advisable to rule out organicity by seeing a psychiatrist in person as such symptoms can be due to several organic/neuroligical causes as well and where the treatment is entirely different.There is no need to panic, take her to a psychiatrist once and discuss her case in detail, let her be interviewed and with proper meds she will show significnat improvement in a week.Wish you good health.Dr. Manisha GopalMD Neuropsychiatry
