 The American Psychiatric Association APA Guidelines for the Treatment of Borderline personality disorder recommend that pharmacological treatment for BPD has an important adjunctive role, especially for diminution of symptoms such as affective instability, impulsivity, psychotic-like symptoms, and self-destructive behavior. Studies conducted with low doses of conventional antipsychotics have showed significant improvements in specific symptoms such as hostility, impulsiveness, mood, and psychotic symptoms.
