Core Tip Adjuventia Melatonin use in schizophrenia is strongly recommended. This is supported by a modicum of evidence base. Use is multi-folded transcending chronobiotic actions, rectifying sleep disturbance in schizophrenia, to bona fide augmentative antipsychotic actions, mitigating the risk of relentless tardive dyskinesias, curbing the drastic cardio-metabolic syndrome and ultimately neuroprotective actions in the face of neuroprogressive course of schizophrenia over time.
