Antipsychotic Efficacy of Fluperlapine

Abstract

In an open multicenter trial 46 schizophrenic patients were treated with fluperlapine for 20 days. A mean daily dosage of 300-400 mg appeared to be an effective antipsychotic treatment in most cases. The marked antipsychotic effect was accompanied by a good improvement of depressive symptoms. Extrapyramidal side effects were extremely rare.
