Abstract

We hospitalized a 50 year-old-woman because of prolonged violent suicide. Coming she had depressive symptoms, but her psychical observation and the heteroanamnestic data have shown psychotic symptoms--paranoid schizophrenia. During hospitalisation her checkup was very correct: long-lasting risperidone-therapy formed the centre of her psychopharmacotherapy. We applied close control and long-lasting antipsychotic treatment--, so the patient became well, without psychotic symptoms. So it was proved, that the long-lasting parenteral antipsychotic risperidone play important role of good compliance.
