No they don’t inflame the brain.

They don’t but they block dopamine which causes these.

They reduce that inflammation. Good first line defense.

Psychosis is inflammatory so they reduce the inflammation of psychosis. I’m not sure if the aps themselves cause a bit of inflammation though. It’s a good question. Hopefully not.
