Note. Patients taking psychotropic medications typically used multiple medications. One schizophrenia patient was taking lithium. One participant with schizotypal personality disorder was taking a stimulant (ephedrine). The medication status of two SZ patients is unknown due to participation in double-blind drug trials at time of testing.
