Summary
The main aim of the trial is to study whether a change of medication in non-responders to a
two-weeks antipsychotic drug trial is more effective than continued treatment with the same
antipsychotic. Hypothesis: Non-responders who are switched at 2 weeks to another
antipsychotic are more frequently in symptomatic remission at week 8 than non-responders who
stay on the same antipsychotic
