First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether carefully reducing antipsychotic medication in stable schizophrenia patients can improve their daily functioning compared to staying on the same dose. Researchers will group 288 adults aged 18–60 by their specific psychosis type and randomly assign them to either dose reduction or maintenance. The goal is to find a safer, more personalized way to manage treatment long-term.
