How Fluphenazine helps treat mental disorders.

Fluphenazine is prescribed to treat serious mental and mood disorders. This medication, which is available to purchase at our Online Canadian Pharmacy, works by inhibiting the actions of the brain chemicals, dopamine and norepinephrine, which are overproduced in individuals with mental disorders such as Psychosis, Schizophrenia and acute manic phases of Bipolar disorder.
Schizophrenia is a chronic, severe, and disabling brain disease. People with schizophrenia often suffer symptoms such as hearing internal voices, hallucinations and/or delusions, speech disturbances, personality changes, withdrawal of the individual’s interest from other people and the outside world, and in his/her own self.
