This network meta-analysis provides evidence for small-to-medium clinically relevant differences between antipsychotics in efficacy; this finding warrants stronger and more specific emphasis in clinical guidelines. Nonetheless, important differences in tolerability need to be considered for individualised drug choice, with partial dopamine agonists having overall better tolerability and xanomeline–trospium lacking adverse effects of dopamine-blocking agents but resulting in cholinergic and anticholinergic adverse events.
