Although anti-psychotic medications are available in India since a long time, little is known about the prescription patterns of Indian psychiatrists. An email survey was sent to 1100 psychiatrists, of which 168 responded. The three most commonly prescribed anti-psychotics were risperidone, olanzapine, and haloperidol. It was also found that typical anti-psychotics comprise of 25.15% (SD=21.66; range 0-100) of all prescriptions and in about 22.36% of the cases the psychiatrists were using more than one anti-psychotic in the same patient.
尽管印度很早就有抗精神病药物,但印度精神病医生的处方模式鲜为人知。我们向 1100 名精神病医生发送了电子邮件调查,其中 168 人做出了回应。处方最常见的三种抗精神病药是利培酮、奥氮平和氟哌啶醇。研究还发现,典型的抗精神病药物占所有处方的 25.15%(SD=21.66;范围 0-100),大约 22.36%的情况下,同一位患者会使用不止一种抗精神病药物。
