Abstract:Background
Previous studies assessing the neurotoxicity of haloperidol, risperidone and paliperidone in cell culture suggest that paliperidone shows the strongest neuroprotective effect and a reduced apoptosis level. Other studies including patients with schizophrenia suggest that switching from risperidone long-acting injection (RLAI) to paliperidone palmitate (PP) may improve cognitive function in processing speed and attention. We aimed to study whether switching from risperidone to PP is … Show more
