Schizophrenia

Schizophrenia

Schizophrenia is a severe mental disorder that affects how a person thinks, feels, and behaves. It's often characterized by hallucinations, delusions, and thought disorders. Those affected may feel like they've lost touch with reality, leading to an altered perception of the world. The symptoms can be debilitating and can profoundly impact one's ability to carry out daily activities, fostering a sense of isolation and, at times, fear.

Medication Management for Schizophrenia

Pharmacological treatment is a cornerstone in managing schizophrenia, aimed at reducing the severity of symptoms and preventing relapse. Commonly prescribed medications include:


Quetiapine (Seroquel)

Olanzapine (Zyprexa)

Ziprasidone (Geodon)

Clozapine (Clozaril)

Aripiprazole (Abilify)

Paliperidone (Invega)

Lurasidone (Latuda)

Risperidone (Risperdal)

It's essential to understand that each individual's response to medication can vary, making personalized treatment vital.
