PHAR, LLC presented research on schizophrenia management at the American Psychiatric Association’s 2010 Institute on Psychiatric Services. PHAR investigators conducted a retrospective cohort study of antipsychotic therapies, and findings from this study confirmed that adherence to antipsychotic treatment is an important determinant of health service use in general and hospitalization in particular. Outcomes may be improved in patients by choosing medications whose effect is less likely to be reduced by imperfect adherence-specifically those with longer half-lives.
