If you’re interested in natural treatments (also known as complementary and alternative medicine, or CAM), you will likely recommend various strategies.

Cobenfy is a novel antipsychotic that acts through the muscarinic acetylcholine system rather than the traditional dopamine pathways.

Tried and true, risperidone’s moderate side effect profile has led to its wide use, and many clinicians consider it their antipsychotic of choice for first-episode psychotic disorders. 

Many consider olanzapine to be more effective than other antipsychotics and just below clozapine in overall efficacy. Its strong effectiveness, once-daily dosing, and low QT-prolongation risk are appealing.

Light therapy is an effective treatment for seasonal affective disorder and possibly for nonseasonal depression as well. 

Tasimelteon is a melatonin receptor agonist approved for non-24-hour sleep-wake disorder (N24SWD), which occurs primarily in blind people.
