Antipsychotic Drugs
Long acting antipsychotic drugs
Some conventional and second-generation antipsychotics (SGAs) are available as long-acting depot preparations (see table Depot Antipsychotic Drugs ). These preparations are useful for eliminating drug nonadherence. They may also help patients who, because of disorganization, indifference, or denial of illness, cannot reliably take daily oral drugs.
