A Comparison of Risperidone and Aripiprazole for Treatment of Patirnts With Methamphetamine-Associated Psychosis

February 2, 2015 updated by: Wei Hao

A Multiple-Center, Randomized, Double-Blind Study of Comparison of Risperidone and Aripiprazole for Treatment

Methamphetamine-associated psychosis (MAP) has been considered a pharmacological or environmental pathogen model of schizophrenia (SCZ) due in part to similarities in clinical presentation (i.e. paranoia, hallucinations, disorganized speech, and negative symptoms), response to treatment (e.g.neuroleptics),and pathologic mechanisms (e.g. central dopaminergic neurotransmission) of both conditions. Both risperidone and aripiprazole are second generation antipsychotics，but have different pharmacological effects of antipsychotic treatment.This study was designed to examine the acute efficacy, safety, and tolerability of risperidone and aripiprazole for patients with MAP.
