Pharmacotherapy of Dual Disorders

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Co-occurring Addictive and Psychiatric Disorders

Abstract

This chapter gives a short overview on the comorbidity and clinical correlates of substance use in affective and anxiety disorders, as well as in schizophrenia. The emphasis is on pharmacotherapies available for the treatment of comorbid disorders. While no specific drugs have been developed for comorbid substance use disorders, psychotropic drugs such as antidepressants or antipsychotics have been tested in dual disorder patients, as well as anticraving compounds. Most studies have included few patients. Very few randomized controlled trials are available in the dual disorder research field. Thus, the empirical basis for evidence-based recommendations is rather limited. The possible benefits of available medications so far are discussed.
