Adverse Psychiatric Reactions Information Link (APRIL) is a registered UK charity. APRIL aims to:

• Raise awareness of psychiatric adverse drug reactions. Awareness could prevent unnecessary distress and in some cases, save lives.
• Establish a database of adverse drug reactions, with information from users, physicians, surgeons, anaesthetists, nurses, pharmacists, doctors, research papers and medical literature.
• Raise funds to sponsor research into why some people are vulnerable to these reactions.
• Obtain expert guidance and publish information on the best way to help the unfortunate people who do suffer from psychiatric ADRs.
• Compile a dictionary of drugs with a known risk to mental health either for people with a previous history or no history at all of mental health problems.
