ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVES:
The aim of this cross-sectional study was to compare the subjective quality of life in the four groups of antipsychotics according to the risk of weight gain in patients with schizophrenia.METHODS:
One hundred and thirty-two patients with schizophrenia that had taken the same antipsychotics for more than 1 year were enrolled in the analyses. Anti-psychotic agents were classified by the risk of weight gain into four groups serious, common, not unusual, and unusual. The quality of life was measured with the Schizophrenia Quality of Life Scale Korean version, 4th Revision (SQLS-R4K). We analyzed the correlation between the total score of SQLS-R4K and clinical variables.RESULTS:
The SQLS-R4K score was significantly different in the four anti-psychotic groups (F=5.200, p=0.002). Gender, type of anti-psychotics (typical, atypical), duration of treatment with current antipsychotics, duration of illness, and Body Mass Index were not significantly correlated with the SQLS-R4K score.CONCLUSION:
The subjective quality of life was different according to the risk of weight gain groups of anti-psychotic agents.
