Schizophrenia is a lifelong condition, but effective treatment can help a person manage the symptoms, prevent relapses, and avoid hospitalization.
Each person’s experience will differ, and a doctor will tailor the treatment to suit the individual.
Some potential treatment options include:
Antipsychotic drugs. People can take these daily or less frequently if they opt for injectable medications, which can last up to 3 months, depending on the medication.
Counseling. Mental health counseling can help people develop coping skills and pursue their life goals.
Coordinated special care. This integrates medication, family involvement, and education services in a holistic approach.
