针灸應可提高患者生活質素及服藥量/副作用:
“There are positive indications for improvements in
quality of life, symptoms of schizophrenia and side effects of
anti-psychotic medication”

“60 schizophrenia patients were treated with electro-acupuncture and chlorpromazine therapy in comparison with chlorpromazine therapy alone, 30 patients for each group, and their curative effects evaluated according to the brief psychiatric rating scale (BPRS).
The result showed the total curative effects of the two groups were similar. However, the marked effects appeared earlier in combined therapy than that of using chlorpromazine alone, less chlorpromazine was needed, hence displayed fewer side-effects.”

在中國有成功的例子:
“In China, acupuncture is often used to treat schizophrenia, and several successful trials have been reported (Kane & Di Scipio 1979, Shi & Tan 1986):
Kane J, Di Scipio W 1979 Acupuncture treatment of schizophrenia: report on three cases. American Journal of Psychiatry 136:297-302. RESULTS: In a 9-week study of three schizophrenics, two patients responded positively to true acupuncture treatment and negatively to “sham” treatment and a third patient showed no significant response to treatment.
Shi Z, Tan M 1986 An analysis of the therapeutic effect of acupuncture treatment in 500 cases of schizophrenia. Journal of Traditional Chinese Medicine 6:99-104. RESULTS: “Cure” in 275 patients, no help in 58 patients and varying imrpovement in the rest In a follow-up of 194 patients, 63 relapsed within 2 years. Patients wit ha history of less than 1 year showed a more favorable response, but even a 10-year history did not prevent nine patients from responding favorably.
Zhang M 1988 Treatment of 296 cases of hallucination with scalp-acupuncture. Journal of Traditional Chinese Medicine 8:193-194. RESULTS: Of 296 cases of hallucination, 292 had schizophrenia. RESULTS: 10 daily sessions with the needles retained between 1 and 3 hours resulted in a 70% “cure” rate after 10-20 treatments“
