pubmed:abstractText |
The risk of suicide for schizophrenia patients is 20 to 50 times higher than that for the general population. Long-term treatment with clozapine, an atypical antipsychotic, has been shown to reduce the rate of suicide by 80% to 85%. The goal of the present study was to examine whether clozapine's effect on the reduction of suicidal behavior in chronic schizophrenic patients could be due to a reduction in impulsive-aggressive behavior.
