4.1 Therapeutic indications
Amisulpride is indicated for the treatment of acute and chronic
schizophrenic disorders, in which positive

POSOLOGY
For acute psychotic episodes, oral doses between 400 mg per day and
800 mg per day are recommended.
In individual cases, the daily dose may be increased up to 1200 mg per
day. Doses above 1200 mg per
day have not been extensively evaluated for safety and therefore
should not be used. No specific titration
is required when initiating the treatment with Amisulpride. Doses
should be adjusted according to
individual response.
For patients with mixed positive and negative symptoms, doses should
be adjusted to obtain optimal
control of positive symptoms.
Maintenance treatment should be established individually with the
minimally effective dose.
For patients characterised by predominant negative symptoms, oral
doses between 50 mg per day and 300
mg per day are recommended. Doses should be adjusted individually.
Amisulpride can be administered once daily at oral doses up to 300 mg,
higher doses should be
administered twice daily.
