The aim of this integrative literature review is to describe the information provided to patients with psychotic disorders regarding their medication and to consider the effectiveness of providing such information. Searches of four databases identified 16 articles that met inclusion criteria. Results indicated that patients had relatively poor knowledge about their medications overall. Knowledge about side effects was found to improve significantly following education, with better knowledge leading to positive patient outcomes including increased adherence. Findings offer a comprehensive description of antipsychotic medication information provided to patients and an indication of the positive impact of information provision.
