First Choices in Schizophrenia: Closing the Guideline-Practice Gap

The 2026 GRADE Guidelines for the Management of Schizophrenia provide updated recommendations for first-line pharmacological treatment. Yet significant gaps between guideline recommendations and contemporary prescribing practice remain, particularly in initial antipsychotic selection and consideration of metabolic and prolactin risk.

This masterclass will examine where current first-line prescribing aligns with – and diverges from – the new recommendations, the clinical, patient and practical factors influencing treatment choice, and opportunities to strengthen guideline-aligned care and optimise longer-term outcomes.
