Zesperone is primarily used to treat certain mental and psychological disorders, such as schizophrenia, a mental disorder that affects thinking and behavior. It is also used to treat bipolar disorder, specifically acute manic or mixed episodes. It helps control irritability associated with autism spectrum disorder in children and adolescents. In some cases, it is used to relieve symptoms of depression or anxiety associated with other mental illnesses.
Zesperone works by regulating brain chemicals to help improve mood, reduce aggressive behavior, and reduce delusions or hallucinations. However, you should consult your doctor before using it to determine the appropriate dose and monitor the condition to ensure its effectiveness and avoid any potential side effects.
