Based on the data available in the literature and the results of his studies, the author analyzes one of the most important parts of the problem in the efficiency of treatment for schizophrenia, namely the quality of therapeutic collaboration (compliance) of patients and a physician. The paper gives data on the spread of low-quality therapeutic collaboration and discusses its reasons and impact on the efficiency of the therapeutic process. The efficiency of current psychopharmacotherapeutic methods aimed at optimizing the therapeutic collaboration is evaluated.
