Abstract: 
In India, one of the primary causes of non-fatal disease burden is psychopharmacological diseases. The prevalence of psychopharmacological disorders in India was one in seven. Despite being used to treat psychological disorders like anxiety, psychosis, depression, and mania, psychopharmacological medications can have unwanted side effects, including tardive dyskinesia, weight gain, weight loss, muscle cramps, dysphoria, gastrointestinal upset, eye problems, and issues with blood tests. We exposed numerous screening techniques for assessing psychopharmacological diseases such anxiety, depression, psychosis, and mania in the context of preclinical investigations in this study. These techniques are highly helpful for assessing psychopharmacological medications such as anti-anxiety, anti-psychotic, anti-depressant, and anti-manic medications.
