Schizophrenia.
Adults (under 65 years old).
In most cases, the drug is prescribed in an initial dose of 2 mg per day, on the second day the dose can be increased to 4 mg. Thereafter, the dose may be maintained unchanged or, if necessary, individual dose adjustment may be continued. For most patients, the recommended dose is 4-6 mg per day. Some patients may be shown a gradual increase in dose or a decrease in the initial dose.
The maximum daily dose of the drug is 10 mg.
A dose in excess of 10 mg per day in most cases has no additional efficacy benefits, but may cause extrapyramidal symptoms, so it is recommended with limitations.
The safety of doses greater than 16 mg per day has not been studied, so such doses should not be used.

The recommended starting dose is 0.5 mg twice a day. If necessary, the dose can be increased to 1-2 mg twice a day by increasing by 0.5 mg twice a day. If additional sedation is required, benzodiazepines may be used concomitantly.
