Objective Our study explore the efficacy and mechanism of minocycline combining with risperidone in the treatment of negative symptom in early-phase schizophrenia.Methods Ninety-two patients with early stage schizophrenia treated with risperidone were randomly assigned to receive minocycline or placebo.Two treatment group both take 1 6-weeks.The clinical effectand immune factor were assessed with the Scale for the Assessment of Negative Symptoms (SANS),the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS),concentration of IL-1β,TNF-α,NObefore the treatment and the end.Results Sub-jects receiving minocycline had greater improvements on PANSS negative subscale scores and PANSS total score (P〈0.01) when compared with those receiving placebo.Minocycline have no effect on the concentration of IL-1β,TNF-αexcept for NO.Conclusion The addition of minocycline to atypical antipsychoticdrugs in early schizophrenia had significant efficacy on neg-ative symptoms.The mechanism is still unknown and is speculated to be related to inhibited the concentration of NO |
