We converted all antipsychotic doses to chlorpromazine ...
Calculation of CPZ Equivalents
We convert all antipsychotic doses to chlorpromazine equivalents, using published equivalencies for oral conventional (American Psychiatric Association 1997) and atypical (Woods 2003) antipsychotics. For depot haloperidol, fluphenazine, and risperidone, we use the manufacturers’ recommended equivalent for the depot to oral conversion for the same drug and then converted to oral chlorpromazine equivalents. For haloperidol the manufacturer recommends that 10-15 mg per 4 weeks is equivalent to 1 mg/d orally. We use the 15 mg figure. This estimate is supported by a bioavailability study (mean 14.1 mg depot/4 weeks per 1 mg/d orally) (Nayak et al 1987). For fluphenazine the manufacturer recommends 12.5 mg depot/3 weeks as equivalent to 10 mg/d orally. This estimate is supported by a dose comparison study (12.5 mg depot/3 week equivalent to approximately 9 mg/d orally) (Schooler and Levine 1976). For risperidone, 25 mg depot/2 weeks per 2 mg/d orally is used (Chue et al 2005).
The following Tables have been created based on the references above.
