Activity Overview

Schizophrenia represents a major psychiatric disorder characterized by symptoms that frequently compromise daily functioning and diminish overall quality of life. While effective management can lead to improved patient outcomes, many individuals continue to struggle with persistent or residual symptoms, medication adherence challenges, and adverse drug reactions. In particular, poor adherence to oral antipsychotic treatment increases the likelihood of symptom recurrence and psychiatric hospitalization. To address these challenges, long-acting injectable (LAI) antipsychotic formulations have been developed that offer advantages, such as eliminating the need for daily medication administration, maintaining more stable drug levels in the bloodstream, and facilitating consistent clinical oversight.

This educational program brings together clinical experts to examine how long-acting injectable antipsychotics can be effectively utilized in schizophrenia treatment, emphasizing their therapeutic benefits and safety profiles while exploring optimal strategies for incorporating these medications into personalized patient care approaches.

This educational activity is an archive of the live virtual symposium held at the Southern Florida Psychiatry conference on November 21, 2025.
