Abstract

AIM: The objectives of the study were to compare total cholesterol levels in men with schizophrenia receiving risperidone and haloperidol treatment.

METHODS: We conducted on treatment analysis experiment study involving 30 subjects who received risperidone and 30 subjects who received haloperidol. Total cholesterol levels were examined at week 0 and week 8.

RESULTS: There were no statistically significant differences in baseline characteristics. At week 8, mean of total cholesterol level in the risperidone group was 207.23 ± 21.49 compared to 188.17 ± 17.00 in the haloperidol group. A difference of 19.06 ± 5.00 (95% CI 9.05–29.08) was observed, which is statistically significant (p < 0.001).

CONCLUSIONS: There was a statistically significant increase in total cholesterol levels in men with schizophrenia receiving risperidone compared to haloperidol.
