Recently there is news that the drug, which is prescribed for Schizophrenia disease, is causing Side effects. It is curing the Disease Schizophrenia and leading to side effects such as loss of white blood cells and fatal inflammation of heart muscle, constipation, drooling, muscle-stiffness, sedation, tremors, orthostasis, hyperglycemia and weight-gain. The medicine Clozapine which is sold as Clozaril®, Leponex®, Fazaclo®) is a type of carbohydrate or having the characteristics of carbohydrate, which is applied in a unbalanced state (which is in excess than what is required , damaging healthy tissues, such as heart muscles, W.B.C’S, reducing the immunity, increasing blood sugar levels in the body( a few characteristics of diabetes), but is effective and required for the damaged tissues ,which is curing the Schizophrenia disease and damaging the heart muscles, white blood cells resulting in weakening of immune system, hyperglycemia (high blood sugar), weight gain, tremors etc. The side effects of clozapine are very similar to carbohydrates characteristics which in excess resulting in side effects. To reduce the side effects, and bringing it to balanced state,to regulate the cabohydrate metabolism, a group of polypeptides, which are suitable to particular carbohydrates are to be supplied in required proportions. If these proteins are not supplied in required proportions or in a balanced state, it may lead some other diseases. Preparing a medicine in a balanced state is very important other wise, diseases are recycled.
Balanced medicine is one, which cures the disease completely, does not damage the healthy tissues, and does notlead to some other disease. When medicine is prepared causing side effects ,we should note that we are lacking in wisdom.

Are you a Doctor, doing research?
Do you mean that it is not possible to prepare a balanced medicine which doesnot cause any side effects? if not what is the use of preparing a medicine , when the diseases are recycling? when we are lacking in wisdom,the problems recycle. When a medicine is invented, it should cure the disease completely without any side effects. True knowledge relieves us from darkness.
There is no ‘cure’ for schizophrenia. The antipsychotic medications, like all medications, carry a risk of side effects. The newer generation of antipsychotics (which include clozapine) carry far less risk of tardive dyskinesia than the older neuroleptics/antipsychotics.
