Symptoms and functioning with aripiprazole once-monthly injection as maintenance treatment for bipolar I disorder

Patients with BP-I experiencing an acute manic episode exhibited symptomatic and functional improvements during stabilization with oral aripiprazole and AOM 400 that were maintained with continued AOM 400 treatment but not placebo. AOM 400 is the first once-monthly long-acting injectable antipsychotic to demonstrate efficacy in maintenance treatment of the manic phase of BP-I.
