LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/school/medical-college-of-georgia-at-augusta-universityInsomnia affects up to half of people with schizophrenia and is thought to worsen the impact of their disease, including their risk of suicide. A new analysis of the antipsychotics these patients take indicates those who take clozapine have significantly fewer problems with insomnia.
Insomnia and suicide risk have been linked in schizophrenia, and clozapine is the only antipsychotic with a Food and Drug Administration indicator for reducing suicide risk, says Brian Miller, MD, psychiatrist and schizophrenia expert at the Medical College of Georgia at Augusta University.
MCG investigators say it’s plausible that clozapine’s ability to essentially double patients’ ability to sleep versus other antipsychotics helps explain the reduced suicide risk. Insomnia has been found to generally worsen schizophrenia symptoms and complications from obesity to depression.
