TLDR
These guidelines for the biological treatment of schizophrenia were developed by an international Task Force of the World Federation of Societies of Biological Psychiatry to reach a consensus on a series of practice recommendations that are clinically and scientifically meaningful based on the available evidence.Abstract:
These guide lines for the biological treatment of schizophrenia were developed by an international Task Force of the World Federation of Societies of Biological Psychiatry (WFSBO). The goal during the development of these guidelines was to review systematically all available evidence pertaining to the treatment of schizophrenia, and to reach a consensus on a series of practice recommendations that are clinically and scientifically meaningful based on the available evidence. These guidelines are intended for use by all physicians seeing and treating people with schizophrenia. The data used for developing these guidelines have been extracted primarily from various national treatment guidelines and panels for schizophrenia, as well as from meta-analyses, reviews and randomised clinical trials on the efficacy of pharmacological and other biological treatment interventions identified by a search of the MEDLINE database and Cochrane Library. The identified literature was evaluated with respect to the strength of evidence for its efficacy and then categorised into four levels of evidence (A-D). This first part of the guidelines covers disease definition, classification, epidemiology and course of schizophrenia, as well as the management of the acute phase treatment. These guidelines are primarily concerned with the biological treatment (including antipsychotic medication, other pharmacological treatment options, electroconvulsive therapy, adjunctive and novel therapeutic strategies) of adults suffering from schizophrenia.read more

TL;DR: Following guidelines for TDM in psychiatry will help to improve the outcomes of psychopharmacotherapy of many patients especially in case of pharmacokinetic problems, and one should never forget that TDM is an interdisciplinary task that sometimes requires the respectful discussion of apparently discrepant data.

TL;DR: The authors present consensus guidelines that operationalize criteria for determining and reporting treatment resistance, adequate treatment, and treatment response, providing a benchmark for research and clinical translation in schizophrenia.

A Meta-Analysis of Head-to-Head Comparisons of Second-Generation Antipsychotics in the Treatment of Schizophrenia
Stefan Leucht,Katja Komossa,Christine Rummel-Kluge,Caroline Corves,Heike Hunger,Franziska Schmid,Claudia Asenjo Lobos,Sandra Schwarz,John M. Davis +8 more
TL;DR: The findings suggest that some second-generation antipsychotics may be somewhat more efficacious than others, but the limitations of meta-analysis must be considered in tailoring drug treatment to the individual patient.

Acute and long-term treatment of catatonia with risperidone.
TL;DR: Risperidone might be a promising drug in the treatment of acute catatonia and in preventing further episodes of schizophrenia after suffering from adequately treated Lyme disease with encephalitis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Symptom response and side-effects of olanzapine and risperidone in young adults with recent onset schizophrenia.
TL;DR: The symptom response and side-effects of olanzapine and risperidone were compared in patients with recent onset schizophrenia and it was found that both drugs were effective in treating positive symptoms and agitation/excitement symptoms, and neither olanZapine or ris peridone influenced disorganization and depression symptoms.

Short-term inpatient pharmacotherapy of schizophrenia.
David N. Osser,Robert Sigadel +1 more
TL;DR: There is much practice variation in the pharmacotherapy of schizophrenia on short-term acute inpatient units, where the length of stay may be 1 week or less, and summary statements regarding evidence-supported procedures for short- term inpatient stabilization are developed.

Wirksamkeit und Verträglichkeit von Zotepin im Doppelblindvergleich mit Perazin bei schizophrenen Patienten
TL;DR: The overall therapeutic efficacy was good, and it was not possible to distinguish one group from the other, i.e. both substances were equally effective, judged by means of the psychopathometric tools that were at the authors' disposal.
Reference EntryDOI
Zuclopenthixol acetate in the treatment of acute schizophrenia and similar serious mental illnesses.
TL;DR: There is no evidence of a consistent difference between zuclopenthixol acetate and other 'standard drugs' for either the pattern of side effects or the wish to leave the study early, and well conducted randomized controlled trials are needed to confirm claims related to the use of zuclanalyst acetate in emergency psychiatry.
