| Abstract | Introduction. Long-term, 12-month effects of olanzapine treatment were evaluated in a sample of 1053 schizophrenic patients. Material and methods. A repeated-measure, naturalistic, prospective design was used. Data were collected at baseline and at three-month follow-ups. Patients were switched from various antipsychotics because of insufficient response and/or marked intolerance. Several psychosocial functioning dimensions were evaluated based on Clinical Global Impression scale. Results. After 12 months, significant improvement in psychosocial functioning was found. Similar patterns of improvements in family relationships, occupational engagement, and other distorted social domains were established. Conclusions. Long-term olanzapine treatment appeared to be effective method for psychosocial intervention among patients with schizophrenia. |
