CLINICAL PARTICULARS
4.1
THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS
Amisulpride is indicated for the treatment of acute and chronic
schizophrenic
disorders, in which positive symptoms (such as delusions,
hallucinations,
thought disorders) and/or negative symptoms (such as blunted affect,
emotional and social withdrawal) are prominent, including patients
characterised by predominant negative symptoms.
4.2
POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
For acute psychotic episodes, oral doses between 400 mg/d and 800 mg/d
are
recommended. In individual cases, the daily dose may be increased up
to 1200 mg/d.
Doses above 1200 mg/d 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/d and 300 mg/d 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 bid.
The minimum effective dose should be used.
Elderly: The safety of amisulpride has been examined in a limited
number of elderly
patients. Amisulpride should be used with particular caution because
of a possible
risk of hypotension and sedation. Reduction in dosage may also be
required because
of renal insufficiency.
Children: The efficacy and safety of amisulpride from puberty to the
age of 18 years
have not been established. Th
