Schizophrenia cannot be treated.
Several evidence-based therapies are available for schizophrenia. There are now numerous emphases on the treatment of schizophrenia. Along with antipsychotic drugs that target dopamine receptors in the brain, emerging pharmacologic treatments target glutamate, glycine, and acetylcholine receptors.
Other schizophrenia therapies include:
- Cognitive-behavioral treatment (CBT)
- Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS)
- Deep neural stimulation
- An integrated approach to the health treatment of schizophrenia patients (mind and body)
