The only AD that is omproved for negative symtoms of depression is trintellix/brintellix, but negative symptoms of schizophrenia is something else, in schizophrenia glutamat and nmda is crucial and therefore i would say that you need a drug that target them receptors to improve negative symptoms of schizophrenia.
Also modafinil is approved in some countries for negative symptoms of schizophrenia, but that is if you can tolerate the effects of it.
and rexulti is indicated for it, brexpiprazole.
This is what i can contribute with.
But you need to understand that the substances you take needs to be able to cross the BBB for it to improve negative symptoms, or any symptoms for that matter.
If we are talking about psychiatric disorders at least.In allergy and constipation it's very good if the medications don't cross the BBB, so you don't need to be affected from them medicines :-)
