From Bench to Bedside: Applying Clinical Updates to Schizophrenia Management

Access Activity

Overview / Abstract:

Per APA Guidelines, treatment goals for schizophrenia include avoiding relapses and exacerbations that can cause immense negative impact on quality of life (QoL). Long-acting injectables (LAIs) are an effective tool for achieving these goals in both acute and chronic phases of illness; however, there is often reluctance to implement their use. A better understanding of the safety and efficacy of LAIs, particularly in comparison to their oral counterparts, can improve treatment decisions for individual patients.

This CME Outfitters BriefCase guides clinicians through effective strategies to develop and implement a treatment plan based on patient preferences, phase of illness, and the latest evidence on safety and efficacy of LAIs.
