Summary

This chapter provides a wide-ranging review of the clinical pharmacology of drugs for the treatment of schizophrenia and psychosis other than clozapine. These are dopamine receptor antagonists and dopamine partial agonists (as per the new Neuroscience-based Nomenclature (NbN) classification). This chapter covers their pharmacodynamics, pharmacokinetics, adverse effects, the latest evidence regarding their ‘antipsychotic’ mechanism of action, their use in the acute and maintenance treatment of schizophrenia, other therapeutic indications and some controversies that surround their use.Dopamine receptor antagonists and dopamine partial agonists are commonly referred to as antipsychotics. As a clinical shorthand the term ‘antipsychotic’ is likely to remain in use.
