Abstract

Schizoaffective disorder shares symptomatology and pathophysiology with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. Studies related to treatment option and their efficacy in schizoaffective disorder are limited; thus, no current consensus treatment guidelines exist. Patients with schizoaffective disorders are treated mainly with combination of antipsychotics and mood stabilizers or antidepressants. Here, the author presents a case of schizoaffective disorders that was successfully treated with endoxifen, which had efficacy issues with amisulpride, quetiapine, and risoperidone and safety issues with clozapine.
