Schizoaffective disorder: role of atypical antipsychotics.
The pharmacologic treatment of schizoaffective disorder is one of the least well-studied areas of contemporary pharmacotherapy. The authors review available literature on the traditional pharmacologic treatment of schizoaffective disorder, new data on the atypical antipsychotics, and potential pharmacologic mechanisms by which these new agents may produce thymoleptic activity.
