According to data from the Winnipeg Regional Health Authority, more than 1,000 Winnipeg nursing home residents at any one time are being placed on powerful antipsychotic drugs to control their behaviour even though theyve not been diagnosed with illnesses such as schizophrenia.. Experts say some off-label use of antipsychotics such as risperidone and olanzapine, which are used to treat schizophrenia, may be warranted, but the level of use in many Canadian nursing homes is too high. Various photos of the drugs in pill form for story. See story. June 10, 2015 Ruth Bonneville / Winnipeg Free Press
