Abstract

In an open-label study, famotidine was added to the regular neuroleptic regimen of 11 schizophrenic patients for 4 weeks. Each patient was scored weekly with SAPS, SANS. CGI and HAM-D-17 scales. The results suggest that famotidine is indeed effective as an adjunctive drug to neuroleptics in the treatment of schizophrenia.
