It has not been officially tested in schitsophrenia, but a few independant case
reports show that it can improve some symptoms.

It has 5ht2a blockatde which will help with sleep and visual hallucinations. It also generally lowers dopamine which can help schitsophrenia.

However, if more symptoms than this need to be addressed, then you may want a antipsychotic.


Good Luck
