Moreover, patients with schizophrenia have severe problems with personal and social relations which affect their quality of life. Antipsychotic medications in conjunction with psychosocial interventions can help patients achieve recovery. Here are described three clinical cases of schizophrenic patients treated with cariprazine for inadequate response to a previous treatment. The purpose of this clinical series is to give useful information for the use of cariprazine in clinical practice.Keywords: cariprazine, schizophrenia, paranoid schizophrenia, negative symptoms, resistant schizophrenia, antipsychoticsAubel TDove Medical Pressarticlecariprazineschizophreniaparanoid schizophrenianegative symptomsresistant schizophreniaantipsychoticsNeurosciences.
