Efficacy of Different Combination Therapies for Mania in Bipolar Disorder: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis
Although the efficacy of ziprasidone plus mood stabilizers is comparable to that of olanzapine plus mood stabilizers in the treatment of manic episodes of bipolar disorder, ziprasidone offers advantages in improving manic symptoms (YMRS scores), reducing adverse events, and enhancing neuroendocrine indicators. It may serve as a favorable alternative in clinical practice. Further high-quality, multicenter, large-sample studies are needed to confirm its efficacy and safety.
