Summary
This study is designed to compare the efficacy and drug tolerability of two strategies for
the treatment of schizophrenia. The two strategies consist of utilizing, on the one hand, a
conventional antipsychotic like haloperidol or flupentixol and, on the other hand, a newer
antipsychotic compound like olanzapine, quetiapine or aripiprazole in patients with
schizophrenia.
