Drug formulation: Easing the toll of caregiving Switching from oral to long-acting injectable antipsychotic medication improves overall caregiver burden. The physical, emotional and financial toll of providing care for patients with schizophrenia is often underestimated. Poor adherence to conventional oral antipsychotics is a major cause of symptomatic relapse in patients and of stress for carers. Srihari Gopal and colleagues at Janssen Pharmaceuticals have pooled data from two large studies involving 1498 caregivers across 27 countries. They found that administration of either 1- or 3-monthly long-acting injectable antipsychotics not only eased the burden of daily dosing and patient compliance, but also had a positive impact on the stress conditions of caregivers.
