I don't think the topic of the effects of smoking on anti-psychotic dosage gets enough attention. So many people with a sz dx smoke. I'm glad my son's pdoc was aware enough to make an adjustment when he quit.

The whole thing with not allowing smoking in psych hospitals, for example. Even if you can get the dosage right in the hospital, which you can't of course, as soon as the patient leaves he or she will likely resume smoking, changing the AP's effect.

Also, a couple of years ago the public housing in our town prohibited smoking all their units. I understand their point of view, and they're not saying you can't smoke outside, but I wonder how many of their residents are mentally ill, smoke, and take APs. It's not a trivial thing.

I think I've been listening to my French CDs too much. I automatically translated your post into French.

Je vois. C'est vraiment intéressant.
