Abstract

Drug strategy in schizophrenia Antipsychotic drugs have been shown to be relevant to treat schizophrenia. Moreover, these drugs are more effective to improve positive than negative and cognitive symptoms of schizophrenia. Antipsychotic drugs are associated with neurologic and metabolic side effects that have to be monitored.

Stratégie médicamenteuse dans la schizophrénie Les antipsychotiques sont la pierre angulaire du traitement pharmacologique de la schizophrénie. Ces molécules agissent en diminuant la transmission dopaminergique. Ils sont associés à des effets neurologiques et métaboliques relativement importants qui nécessitent une attention particulière.

Keywords: Drug Therapy; Schizophrenia.
