Antipsychotic medications are viewed as cornerstones for both the short-term and long-term treatment of schizophrenia. However, evidence on long-term (10 or more years) efficacy of antipsychotics is mixed. Double-blind discontinuation studies indicate significantly more relapses in unmedicated schizophrenia patients in the first 6-10 months, but also present some potentially paradoxical features. These issues are discussed.
抗精神病药物被视为治疗精神分裂症短期和长期的基石。然而,关于抗精神病药物长期(10 年或更长时间)疗效的证据是混杂的。双盲停药研究表明,未经治疗的精神分裂症患者在最初的 6-10 个月内复发的风险显著增加,但也存在一些潜在的矛盾特征。这些问题将进行讨论。
