Fit Bayesian models in Stan <doi: 10.18637/jss.v076.i01>
with checkpointing, that is, the ability to stop the MCMC sampler at
will, and then pick right back up where the MCMC sampler left off.
Custom 'Stan' models can be fitted, or the popular package 'brms'
<doi: 10.18637/jss.v080.i01> can be used to generate the 'Stan' code. This
package is fully compatible with the R packages 'brms', 'posterior', 'cmdstanr',
and 'bayesplot'.

As different antipsychotic medications have different potencies,
the doses of different medications cannot be directly compared. Various
strategies are used to convert doses into a common reference so that
comparison is meaningful. Chlorpromazine (CPZ) has historically been used
as a reference medication into which other antipsychotic doses can be
converted, as "chlorpromazine-equivalent doses". Using conversion keys
generated from widely-cited scientific papers (Gardner et. al 2010
<doi:10.1176/appi.ajp.2009.09060802>, Leucht et al. 2016
<doi:10.1093/schbul/sbv167>), antipsychotic doses are converted
to CPZ (or any specified antipsychotic) equivalents. The use of the package
is described in the included vignette. Not for clinical use.
