Abstract

La esquizofrenia es una enfermedad compleja que actualmente no tiene cura. Existen, sin embargo, numerosas terapias que, solas o en combinación, son eficaces para tratar los síntomas de la enfermedad y mantenerla bajo control. La elección del tratamiento debe ser siempre individualizada, y basarse en la presentación clínica de la enfermedad, el estado general del paciente y la eficacia del fármaco, si bien hay que considerar también el costo y el acceso a servicios y al fármaco, que en México tiene algunas limitaciones. Un panel de 12 expertos mexicanos se reunió de forma virtual para revisar los últimos datos publicados y establecer unas recomendaciones de tratamiento en México, basadas en la evidencia, que garanticen una atención médica integral, homogénea, eficiente y con calidad.

Schizophrenia is a complex illness that currently has no cure. There are, however, numerous therapies that, alone or in combination, are effective in treating the symptoms of the disease and keeping it under control. The choice of treatment must always be individualized, and based on the clinical presentation of the disease, the general condition of the patient and the efficacy of the drug, although the cost and access to services and to the drug must also be considered, as in Mexico it has some limitations. A panel of 12 Mexican experts met virtually to review the latest published data and establish evidence-based treatment recommendations in Mexico that guarantee comprehensive, homogeneous, efficient, and quality medical care.
