AbstractDespite some methodological shortcomings, audits of prescription practice repeated at appropriate intervals may be useful in revealing discrepancies between recommended guidelines for psychotropic drug administration and actual clinical practice. The authors conducted a survey of psychopharmacotherapy of 158 chronic, mostly schizophrenic, patients treated in a long-stay care rehabilitation facility in Hong Kong.
