Özet
Objective: The rate of polypharmacy is increasing in patients with psychotic disorders. Polypharmacy is defined as the concomitant use of two or more drugs at a time. As most psychotropic medications are metabolized via the cytochrome enzyme system, it is easy to predict that polypharmacy will increase the risk of drug-drug interactions. This study was planned to evaluate the interaction risks of medications used by patients with a diagnosis of schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder.
