Summary

This is a screening study aimed at estimating the frequency of antipsychotic non-compliance in patients with a history of schizophrenia or other psychotic disorder admitted to an inpatient psychiatric unit. Levels of the antipsychotics risperidone, olanzapine, quetiapine, aripiprazole, and paliperidone will be drawn in patients presenting the emergency room who are acutely psychotic, require admission to an inpatient hospital, have a history of psychosis, and have previously been prescribed one of the study drugs. Levels will then be analyzed to determine the frequency and severity of non-compliance in this population.
