Even if you don't suffer, I want to help you to better understand the many mentally ill people you are likely to encounter as you go through life, and explain why you don't need to shun them. I want to demonstrate that in fact, friendship with the mentally ill can be a rewarding experience.

Zomaril, which has an antagonistic activity on a wide spectrum of brain receptors for dopamine and serotonin, with preferential affinity for 5HT2A serotonin receptors in humans, had previously shown activity against both positive and negative symptoms of schizophrenia, as well as a low liability for inducing extrapyramidal symptoms (movement disorders) in Phase II clinical trials. Analysis of the ILP3000 results indicates that Zomaril statistically significantly reduced the symptoms of schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder as measured by the Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (BPRS) and confirmed the excellent tolerability profile, including the lack of extrapyramidal symptoms. "We are encouraged by the results of this initial study," stated Dr. Joerg Reinhardt, head of Novartis Pharma Development. "We are well on track in our development of Zomaril as a novel, potential first line therapy for schizophrenia and psychotic disorders."

Schizoaffective Disorder Treatment Phillip W. Long, M.D. Contents Medical Treatment Basic Principles Hospitalization Antipsychotic Drugs ... Behavior Therapy Medical Treatment Basic Principles Both drug and psychosocial therapies are necessary to successfully treat schizoaffective disorder. Because of the unemployment, poverty, and homelessness that often complicates schizoaffective disorder, drug therapy alone usually is insufficient. Drug therapy usually can stop the patient's psychosis, but often only social and occupational rehabilitation therapies can overcome the associated unemployment, poverty and homelessness. Recovering from schizoaffective disorder is an extremely lonely experience, and these patients require all the support that their families, friends, and communities can provide. Schizoaffective disorder appears to be a combination of a thought disorder, mood disorder, and anxiety disorder. Thus the medical management of schizoaffective disorder oftens requires a combination of antipsychotic, antidepressant, and antianxiety medication. Unfortunately, after the first year of treatment, only a minority of schizoaffective outpatients remain on their oral medications. Thus long-acting, depot antipsychotic medications that last 2-4 weeks between injections (e.g., depot haloperidol, pipotiazine, or fluphenazine) usually are required to overcome this noncompliance problem. Hospitalization Treatment of an acutely psychotic patient often requires psychiatric hospitalization. The presence of adequate family or social supports will often shorten the length of this hospitalization, or permit the psychotic patient to be treated solely on an outpatient basis.

CPS watch Guest Book View Sign Donate Here The Disease called "Schizoaffective Disorder" was invented with the advent of the USA's DSM III but it was not until the DSM III r came out that actual guidelines for diagnosing this disease were invented. The DSM IV replaced the DSM III, the DSM IV contains many more mental "diseases" than the DSM III, new diseases are being invented / discovered all the time it seems. Schizoaffective disorder is one of the most confusing and controversial diagnostic categories in psychiatry. There is little agreement on what it actually is. Since there is no test or specific anatomical lesion for any "mental illness" we are stuck with the DSM IV and clinicians subjective interpretations of it when we or our loved ones are labeled. In most cases simply switching doctors will cause you or your loves ones to be given a different diagnosis. In the rest of the world is stuck with the ICD 10 classification. The ICD 10 classification is below Here are the current guidelines for what schizoaffective disorder is in the DSM IV
