Detailed Description

Investigators prepare to recruit 30 schizophrenia patients in one year. Investigators will conduct a 8-week open label clinical trial for evaluation of the pharmacokinetic and safety of esomeprazole use for the schizophrenia. Investigators will give 40 mg/day esomeprazole in the first two weeks and 80 mg/day from the third week to the end of the trial. Investigators will check the area under the concentration of metabolites of esomeprazole on Day 1, Day 14 and Day 56 and the genotype of CYP2C19. The GI symptoms and related drug side effects will be evaluated.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Plasma Concentration analysis
Time Frame: It will be assessed on Day 1 predose, Day 14 90 mins post dose, and Day 56 90 mins post dose
The pharmacokinetic parameters for esomeprazole and its main metabolites
It will be assessed on Day 1 predose, Day 14 90 mins post dose, and Day 56 90 mins post dose

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
CYP2C19 genotypes analysis
Time Frame: The genotype will be assessed on Day 1
Investigators will genotype CYP2C19 genotype to determine that which metabolized type (poor metabolizer, intermediate metabolizer, and good metabolizer) of patients belong to.
The genotype will be assessed on Day 1
