Özet

Objective: Maintenance treatment with antipsychotic drugs for patients with schizophrenia is highly effective in decreasing the recurrence rate of the disease. In the current study, we aimed to compare long-acting second generation antipsychotic drug injections and oral forms of second generation antipsychotic drugs in terms of their adverse effects on quality of life.
