Overview

About this course

Multiple relapses characterize the course of disease in most patients with schizophrenia. Long-acting injectable (LAI) antipsychotics can help improve adherence to schizophrenia therapy to minimize relapse episodes. In a dinner symposium sponsored by Lundbeck, Professor Nagesh Pai of the University of Wollongong, Australia, discussed the benefits of LAI antipsychotics with focus on aripiprazole once-monthly (Abilify Maintena®) and reviewed clinical considerations for their use in schizophrenia.
