Crucial literature review on optimal antipsychotic dosing for long term maintenance in #Schizophrenia.

Conclusion: Seek Goldilocks "just right"- definitely not high because of bad side effects, but not so low as to risk relapse.

Often easier said than done. https://t.co/RBBPBMzn9D

Doses higher than 5mg/day risperidone equivalent are not more effective for relapse prevention than lower doses in #schizophrenia. But caution is required at the lower end of the dose-response curve where relapse risk disproportionally increases https://t.co/kQcnuRtzYU
