One thing to always keep in mind is that lack of focus /concentration is often a sign of inadequate treatment, not a med side effect.
This can be difficult to sort out. Many of the older anti-psychotics had this effect & also a parallel sedation effect as dosages were increased.
Many of the newer APs & ADs do not have this increase in sedation & confusion as the dose increases.
If you have a problem with focus /concentration, you need to discuss this carefully with your treating doc to try & determine the cause. Then modify your med regimen accordingly.
