Abstract

The relationship of haloperidol dose and plasma concentration to psychotic symptoms of schizophrenia is described. The authors present evidence supporting a therapeutic window hypothesis, in which an individual patient's course follows an inverted U curve. The clinical implications for dosage strategies are discussed.
