ABSTRACT

The authors describe three schizophrenic patients who suffered from panic attacks and experienced marked improvement of these episodes after switching to quetiapine from their previous antipsychotics (haloperidol, bromperidol, and risperidone), which have high dopamine antagonistic properties such as haloperidol, bromperidol, and risperidone.
