Abstract

Author(s):

Schizophrenia is a severe mental disorder that can have significant impacts on individuals and their communities. Treatment for schizophrenia typically involves a combination of medication, therapy, and social support. This article provides an overview of the current state of schizophrenia treatment, including the use of antipsychotic medications, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and psychosocial interventions. It also discusses the challenges and opportunities in providing effective treatment for individuals with schizophrenia in public wellness settings, including access to care, stigma reduction, and integration of mental health services into primary care.
