CLINICAL PARTICULARS 4.1 THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS Maintenance treatment and relapse prevention in schizophrenia and other psychoses. 4.2 POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION The most appropriate dose and frequency of administration should be individualised. The usual initial dose is 12.5 mg to 25 mg of Moditen depo. Subsequent doses and dosing intervals are determined individually. The usual dosing interval is 15 to 35 days. If doses higher than 50 mg are required, they are gradually increased by 12.5 mg. A single dose should not exceed 100 mg. Patients who have not received previous phenothiazine therapy should initially be treated with short- acting injections or Moditen coated tablets. When patients are found to tolerate Moditen well, they can be switched to Moditen depo. An initial dose of 12.5 mg Moditen depo is given intramuscularly. If no severe undesirable effects occur, a further 25 mg dose is administered in 5 to 10 days. The dose is then individually adjusted. If a patient is already taking phenothiazines, they may be replaced with Moditen depo without previous treatment with short-acting injections or Moditen coated tablets. Again, an initial intramuscular dose of 12.5 mg is given to test the patient’s tolerance of Moditen depo and then the dose is adjusted according to the course of the disease. _Elderly patients_ Lower doses are usually sufficient for elderly patients, from 1/3 to 1/4 of the younger adult dose. _Paediatric population_ _Children and adolescents 12 to 18 Прочитать полный документ
