What medication makes people less sleepy

“The following three antipsychotic compounds were least associated with sedation and somnolence (ROR crosses 2): prochlorperazine ( n = 202) ROR = 1.4 (95% CI, 1.2–1.6), paliperidone ( n = 641) ROR = 1.9 (95% CI, 1.8–2.0), and aripiprazole lauroxil ( n = 36) ROR = 2.1 (95% CI, 1.5–3.0).”

Im not sleepy im on 5mg haloperidol . But some people sleep alot on it? I read? I dont know well i do drink a fair amount of coffee

What do you mean by ‘fair game’?

I need a sleepy AP. Risperdal is a sleeper and I’m lowering it. I don’t know what else I can take that will both help me sleep and not be a weight gainer. And that will also work on psychosis and not mess up creativity. I hope thats not too tall an order!?

I meant its not as sedating as some of the other atypicals, but it still makes you drowsy.
