Identifying Predictors of Primary Adherence to Second Generation Long-Acting Injectable Antipsychotics Following Discharge from an Acute Inpatient Psychiatry Unit
Primary adherence and medication persistence to second generation LAI antipsychotics following hospital discharge is low with approximately 60% of patients not receiving another injection. Clinicians should consider outpatient medication adherence before initiating a second-generation LAI antipsychotic during hospitalization. Efforts should be made to facilitate adherence to LAI antipsychotics during transition of care from inpatient to outpatient settings.
