Effective treatment of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, the aim of which is complete symptomatic and functional improvement, still remains a challenge. Comprehensive approach to patient’s problems is thought to be crucial, and the usage of an adequate antipsychotic drug is believed to support this process effectively. Currently common modern antipsychotics exhibit similar efficacy in treating positive symptoms of schizophrenic psychosis and mania. However, they vary considerably in terms of their influence on other symptoms as well as tolerance, treatment acceptance and broadly understood doctor–patient cooperation. Aripiprazole is unique due to its mechanism of action. By contrast with other antipsychotics, it is a partial antagonist of D2/D3 (and certain serotonin receptors). Such a pharmacological profile not only grants it considerable efficacy in psychosis treatment, comparable to other second-generation antipsychotics, but also makes it beneficial in treating affective, cognitive and negative symptoms of schizophrenia. Other benefits granted by the pharmacological profile of this drug include: low risk of parkinsonism, beneficial profile in terms of its influence on metabolism (practically no influence on body weight) and the fact that it does not induce hyperprolactinaemia. Due to these positive pharmacological features, aripiprazole can be used not only in preferred monotherapy, but also in combined treatment, including for improved tolerance of other drugs. More recent studies suggest the extension of its indications to, among others, depression refractory to standard pharmacotherapy and behavioural disorders in patients with dementia.

Efektywne, nastawione na możliwie kompletną poprawę objawową i funkcjonalną leczenie schizofrenii i choroby afektywnej dwubiegunowej pozostaje w dzisiejszym stanie wiedzy zadaniem trudnym. Uważa się, że kluczowe jest kompleksowe podejście do problemów pacjenta, a zastosowanie odpowiedniego leku przeciwpsychotycznego ma ten proces skutecznie wspomagać. Powszechnie obecnie stosowane nowoczesne leki przeciwpsychotyczne są podobnie skuteczne w zwalczaniu pozytywnych objawów psychozy schizofrenicznej oraz manii, natomiast znacznie różnią się w zakresie wpływu na pozostałe objawy, jak również pod względem tolerancji, akceptacji leczenia i szeroko rozumianej współpracy lekarz – pacjent. Aripiprazol wyróżnia się unikalnym mechanizmem działania – inaczej niż pozostałe leki przeciwpsychotyczne, jest częściowym antagonistą D2/D3 (oraz niektórych receptorów serotoninowych). Taki profil farmakologiczny pozwala na uzyskanie nie tylko znacznej, porównywalnej do innych leków przeciwpsychotycznych II generacji, skuteczności w leczeniu ostrej psychozy, ale także korzystnego wpływu na objawy afektywne, poznawcze i negatywne schizofrenii. Dodatkowymi korzyściami wynikającymi z profilu farmakologicznego leku są niskie ryzyko wywoływania parkinsonizmu, korzystny profil w zakresie wpływu na stan metaboliczny (praktycznie brak wpływu na masę ciała) oraz niewywoływanie hiperprolaktynemii. Te korzystne cechy farmakologiczne powodują, że aripiprazol może być stosowany nie tylko w preferowanej monoterapii, ale także jako leczenie dodane, w tym w celu poprawy tolerancji innych leków. Nowsze badania wskazują na możliwości poszerzenia panelu wskazań, między innymi o depresję oporną na standardową farmakoterapię oraz zaburzenia zachowania u chorych z otępieniem.
