On pairwise meta-analyses, the most effective augmentation agents for total psychosis symptoms were aripiprazole (standardised mean difference: 0.48; 95% confidence interval: \u22120.89 to \u22120.07) fluoxetine (standardised mean difference: 0.73; 95% confidence interval: \u22120.97 to \u22120.50) and, sodium valproate (standardised mean difference: 2.36 95% confidence interval: \u22123.96 to \u22120.75). Memantine was effective for negative symptoms (standardised mean difference: \u22120.56 95% confidence interval: \u22120.93 to \u22120.20). However, many of these results included poor-quality studies. Single studies of certain antipsychotics (penfluridol), antidepressants (paroxetine, duloxetine), lithium and Ginkgo biloba showed potential, while electroconvulsive therapy was highly promising. Mixed treatment comparisons were only possible for antipsychotics, and these gave similar results to the pairwise meta-analyses.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>On the basis of the limited data available, the best evidence is for the use of aripiprazole, fluoxetine and sodium valproate as augmentation agents for total psychosis symptoms and memantine for negative symptoms.
