A psychiatric clinical pharmacist, acting as a primary clinician under the supervision of the attending psychiatrist, monitored the medication for 14 chronic schizophrenic out-patients over a 10-year period. Successful treatment resulted in a decreased rate of rehospitalization, shorter length of hospital stay, a decrease in total neuroleptic dosage, significantly fewer medication-related side-effects, and improved compliance as compared to the 10-year period prior to entry into the study. Our study suggests that with the expansion of community health services, expanded roles and the use of a clinical pharmacist may contribute significantly to the medication management of chronic schizophrenic out-patients. However, a parallel group study is required to confirm our results.
