Abstract:
Antipsychotic medications are indicated for the treatment of schizophrenia and other psychiatric disorders including bipolar disorder. However, oral antipsychotics are associated with a number of issues including poor treatment adherence. Long Acting Injectable (LAI) antipsychotics were designed to address these issues with oral antipsychotics. LAI antipsychotics offer several advantages including less frequent dose administration, better adherence and tolerability, and relapse prevention, which in turn help in improving patients’ quality of life.

Abstract:
Abstract Background Schizophrenia often requires long-term treatment with antipsychotics. Paliperidone palmitate long-acting injection (PPLAI) is one of the advantageous options to maintain adherence, prevent relapse and hospitalization (Kishimoto et al., 2021; Tiihonen et al., 2017). In Japan, paliperidone palmitate 1-monthly (PP1M) and paliperidone palmitate 3-monthly (PP3M) have been approved, and the approved patient population for PP3M in Japan is limited to patients with schizophrenia who have been stabilized with PP1M monotherapy.

Abstract:
Long-acting injectable (LAI) antipsychotics can have considerable advantages over oral medications for the management of patients with schizophrenia. Despite the high prevalence of treatment nonadherence with oral pharmacotherapy, LAI antipsychotics are significantly underutilized in this patient population. The availability of newer LAI antipsychotic preparations combined with a resurgent interest in the use of typical antipsychotics has rekindled awareness of the value of LAI medications.

Abstract:
There has been increasing recognition that antipsychotic nonadherence is common across all stages of schizophrenia, starting from the first episode. Moreover, numerous meta-analyses of the existing literature indicate superiority of long-acting injectable (LAI) over oral antipsychotics when one adjusts for the greater illness severity and duration among patients in LAI antipsychotic trials. The increasing availability of LAI antipsychotic options has raised interest in converting patients from oral medication; however, the successful transition from oral to the comparable LAI antipsychotic req

Abstract:
Chronic disorders such as schizophrenia require long-term treatment programs in order to maintain patients at the lowest level of symptomatology, reduce the likelihood of psychotic relapse, and support achievement of remission and recovery. Evidence suggests that treatment with long-acting injectable antipsychotics reduces the impact of partial compliance and provides predictable release of medication, assuring continuous therapeutic coverage. Until recently, only conventional antipsychotic agents were available in long-acting formulations, thereby foregoing the advantages of the atypical clas

Abstract:
Background: Schizophrenia is a mental disorder affecting approximately 0.32% of the global population, according to the World Health Organization. Antipsychotic medications are used to treat this condition by inhibiting D2 dopamine and 5HT2 serotonin receptors. The selection of the appropriate mode of delivery for these drugs is based on factors such as patient adherence, clinical presentation, and patient preferences. However, additional drivers of treatment selection are required in clinical practice. Mounting evidence suggests that neuroinflammation plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis

Aims: Our aim was to review if procyclidine is being prescribed as per BNF guidelines at DGS CMHT. As per BNF guidelines, procyclidine is recommended to be initiated at 2.5 mg of procyclidine three times per day increasing by 2.5 mg daily until symptoms are relieved. The effective maintenance dose is usually 10–30 mg procyclidine per day. After a period of 3–4 months of therapy, procyclidine should be withdrawn and the patient should be observed to see whether the neuroleptic-induced extrapyramidal symptoms recur.Methods: A retrospective clinical audit was conducted on 36 patients receiving lo

Non-adherence and partial adherence to antipsychotic treatment is a common feature that has been detected in half or more patients with schizophrenia.

Abstract:
Schizophrenia is a chronic, invalidating, and polymorphic disease, characterized by relapses and remission periods. The main treatment option in schizophrenia are antipsychotics, administered as an oral or as a long-acting injectable (LAI) formulation. Although international guidelines rarely recommend it, mood stabilizers (MS) and/or benzodiazepines (BZD) are frequently prescribed as adjunctive therapy in schizophrenia patients for various reasons. This is an observational, cross-sectional study including stabilized schizophrenia patients. A total of 315 patients were enrolled. Of these, 77 p
