Summary

Objective: The aim of this double-blind, placebo-controlled study was to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of ziprasidone in the treatment of adult patients with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD).

Method: Sixty BPD patients were included in a 12-week, single-center, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. The subjects were randomly assigned to ziprasidone or placebo in a 1:1 ratio following a two-week baseline period. The Clinical Global Impression scale for use in BPD patients (CGI-BPD) was the primary outcome measure, and other scales and self-reports related to affect, behavior, psychosis, general psychopathology domains and clinical safety were included.
