Nei disturbi psicotici, l’intervento precoce tramite l’impiego di farmaci antipsicotici aumenta la probabilità di un decorso favorevole nel lungo termine. Tuttavia la gestione farmacologica con i farmaci di prima generazione (tipici) è complicata da un’alta percentuale di effetti collaterali, anche sotto forma di disfunzioni sessuali, provocate principalmente dall’aumento delle prolattinemia. I sintomi correlati a quest’ultima comprendono: riduzione del desiderio sessuale, disfunzione erettile, disturbi dell’eiaculazione, irregolarità mestruali, amenorrea, dismenorrea, ginecomastia. Tuttavia, con l’avvento della seconda generazione di farmaci antipsicotici (atipici), i pazienti in trattamento hanno cominciato a mostrare minori effetti negativi sulla sessualità ed una migliore adesione alla terapia. Lo scopo del lavoro è di descrivere gli aspetti epidemiologici e clinici correlati all’impiego di farmaci antipsicotici tipici e atipici e le strategie di intervento farmacologico e psico-sociale per affrontare questo problema.;
