| Popis: |
Non-compliance (or non-adherence) with antipsychotic pharmacotherapy occurs frequently. In addition, there is overwhelming evidence that it constitutes a major risk factor for psychotic relapse. Compliance substantially affects course and treatment of schizophrenia. During the last decades, a large body of research on compliance with antipsychotic medication has been accumulated.The authors provide an overview of meta-analyses. Reviews published since 1990 on effects of interventions aiming at increasing compliance with medication in people suffering from schizophrenia are summarized.We found eight reviews which reported empirical findings on the efficacy and effectiveness of interventions with the goal of improving compliance. Interventions have shown limited (psychoeducation) to moderate (cognitive-behavioral and combined interventions) effects. Other relevant findings are summarized and discussed. |
