WENDAN DECOCTION PLUS LOW DOSE ANTIPSYCHOTIC vs STANDARD DOSE ANTIPSYCHOTICS

Global state: Clinically important change ‐ no improvement ‐ defined as PANSS < 50% reduction (short term) · patients with schizophrenia

WENDAN DECOCTION PLUS LOW DOSE ANTIPSYCHOTIC probably leads to lower global state: Clinically important change ‐ no improvement ‐ defined… compared with NORMAL DOSE ANTIPSYCHOTIC (moderate certainty).

Adverse effects: any observed extrapyramidal symptoms ‐ short term (up to 6 months) · patients with schizophrenia

WENDAN DECOCTION PLUS LOW DOSE ANTIPSYCHOTIC probably leads to lower adverse effects: Movement disorders ‐ Extra Pyramidal Symptoms… compared with NORMAL DOSE ANTIPSYCHOTIC (moderate certainty).
