'''Physical fatigue''' ~~(or '''muscle fatigue''') is the temporary physical inability~~ of ~~the muscles to perform optimally~~. ~~It is a side~~ effect ~~characterized by feelings of tiredness~~ and ~~weakness~~. It can ~~occur after prolonged physical exertion and extended periods of wakefulness. People who are fatigued may find it difficult to complete physical actions and may not~~ be ~~capable~~ of ~~getting out of bed~~ or ~~performing everyday household tasks~~. ~~It can generally be treated with~~ a ~~period~~ of ~~rest~~ or ~~sleep.~~

'''Physical fatigue''' can be described as a general feeling of bodily exhaustion. The intensity and duration of this effect typically depends on the substance consumed and its dosage. It can also be further exacerbated by various factors such as a lack of sleep or food. These feelings of exhaustion involve a wide variety of symptoms which generally include some or all of the following effects:

[[~~Cognitive~~ fatigue]], the ~~mental equivalent~~ of ~~this component~~, ~~frequently occurs simultaneously alongside~~ of ~~physical fatigue~~.

*[[Sedation]]

*[[Perception of bodily heaviness]]

*[[Decreased libido]]

*[[Motor control loss]]

*[[Sleepiness]]

People who are fatigued may find it difficult to complete physical actions and may not be capable of getting out of bed or performing everyday household tasks. It can generally be treated with a period of rest or sleep.

Physical fatigue is often accompanied by other coinciding effects such as [[cognitive fatigue]]. It is most commonly induced under the influence of [[dosage#common|moderate]] [[dosage|dosages]] of [[antipsychotic]] compounds, such as [[quetiapine]], [[haloperidol]], and [[risperidone]]. However, it can also occur during the [[withdrawal]] symptoms of many [[depressant|depressants]], and during the [[duration#offset|offset]] of many [[stimulant|stimulants]].
