Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The primary goal of this study is to investigate metabolic changes and maintaining efficacy in stabilized patients with bipolar disorders who have pharmacologically induced weight gain.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

* reduced treatment adherence due to metabolic side effects
* suggested advantages of aripiprazole in metabolic profile over other antipsychotics or mood stabilizers
* randomized trial of switch from previous drugs to aripiprazole
