Psychotherapeutic drugs antipsychotic

Like other drugs, psychotherapeutic drugs can be classified in different ways. The most common way is by therapeutic use, and the four major categories are antipsychotics, antidepressants, antianxiety agents, and mood-stabilizing drugs. 

In general, schizophrenic psychoses have to be treated by a multimodal approach including medication, psychotherapeutic interventions, and in chronic cases, rehabilitation. During the acute state of the psychosis, inpatient treatment and antipsychotic medication are required as the most important components. Drug treatment is the most important component during the first inpatient phase.
