The recognition of both the value and limitations of antipsychotic drug treatment has led to research on effective alternative strategies for treatment. The authors review assumptions underlying such strategies and introduce five articles pertinent to the topic. These articles address: the use of drugs other than antipsychotic neuroleptics; the use of reduced dosages of antipsychotic drugs; the initiation of antipsychotic drugs early during periods of symptom exacerbation to prevent full relapse; the use of psychosocial treatment strategies in relation to drug treatment; and the development of antipsychotic drugs following models based on restitutive systems in the brain.
对抗精神病药物治疗的价值和局限性的认识促使人们对有效的替代治疗策略进行研究。作者回顾了这些策略背后的假设，并介绍了五篇与该主题相关的文章。这些文章探讨了：使用非抗精神病性神经阻滞剂的药物；降低抗精神病药物的剂量；在症状加重期早期开始使用抗精神病药物以预防完全复发；与药物治疗相关的心理社会治疗策略的使用；以及基于大脑恢复系统模型开发抗精神病药物。
