I know it’s used for schizophrenia and bipolar mania too. It’s good for pregnant bipolar women who can’t take lithium during the first trimester at least if they have an episode.

Will it not confuse anybody if melancholia stands for severe psychotic depressions?
Give us a good intro, Redway: technique/preparation, uses, side-effects plus anything extra you consider useful.
