Psychopharmacotherapy compliance in catatonic and paranoid type of schizophrenia
Objective: The aim of this study was to compare psychopharmacotherapy compliance in catatonic with paranoid schizophrenia. Methods: From a base population of 10569 schizophrenic patients recorded in the Croatian Psychotics Case Register (CPRC), a representative sample of 402 patients (207 males and 195 females) was formed for further long-term field- clinical- epidemiological follow-up. In this sample there were 59 (14.7%) patients, who were diagnosed at least once in their life as catatonic schizophrenia (ICD and DSM). Every catatonic patient was matched to one with paranoid schizophrenia from the sample, according to residential area, sex and age. The patients were followed up for more than 25 years. The compliance status was assessed in the beginning of the illness and approximately 20 years later. Results: Age, sex and employment status were not found to be significantly associated with psychopharmacotherapy compliance. Good compliance was recorded more often in patients with catatonic schizophrenia (72.9% ; 59.3%) than in group of patients with paranoid schizophrenia (64.4% ; 54.2%). In both groups there was a significant drop of psychopharmacotherapy compliance between two observed intervals. Conclusion: During 20-year follow-up of catatonic and paranoid schizophrenic patients no significant difference in psychopharmacotherapy compliance was found. Variety of different methods (psychosocial interventions, education about illness for patients and relatives, anti stigma program, simple drug regiment etc.) should be applied to improve psychopharmacotherapy compliance in patients with schizophrenia.
