Abstract
⺠The Met/Met genotype of COMT may have an effect on aggressive behaviour in schizophrenia. ⺠Met/Met homozygous patients had the most aggressive behaviour compared to Val/Val homozygous subjects. ⺠The dose of antipsychotics was not associated with the frequency of aggressive episodes. ⺠Met/Met subjects tended to receive higher doses of medication.
