Manystudies reported increased rate of morbidity and mortality in mentally ill population. The increased rate of conditions like diabetes mellitus cardiovascular disorders and obesity particularly abdominal adiposity and visceral abdominal fat which is incriminated in diminished insulin sensitivity that leads to diabetes. Many factors were attributed to these metabolic changes including the life style issues like poor nutritional habits and reduced activity or even the disease process itself. However, the antipsychotic medications have been largely incriminated in this respect.

 This stimulate some author to make extensive reviewing and collect evidence for and against an association between glucose or lipid deregulation and eight separate second-generation antipsychotics currently available worldwide, specifically clozapine, olanzapine, risperidone, quetiapine, zotepine, amisulpride, ziprasidone and aripiprazole. Reports of adverse effects of antipsychotics on glucose and lipid metabolism have more frequently associated with some antipsychotics specially clozapine and olanzapine and less with quetiapine or risperidone. Other reports of limited short or long terms weight gains with drugs like ziprasidone and aripiprazole.
