Delusional infestation, previously known as delusional parasitosis, is a condition with which patients believe that their bodies are infested with abnormal living organisms or non-living substances. Many patients can recover with a good therapeutic clinician-patient relationship and, usually, the use of risperidone, aripiprazole, or olanzapine.
