Summary
The study will provide an empirical basis for a pharmacological treatment option. An
open-label, randomized, multi-centre parallel group design is used. An intensified clinical
management (CM), which allows needs-based psychological crisis intervention, is compared to a
combination of such a CM and the atypical neuroleptic amisulpride. The central hypothesis is
that the combination of a clinical management with an atypical neuroleptic is the superior
treatment.
