Introduction Psychotic disorders, and especially schizophrenia, constitute a group of diseases
that affect different domains and specific areas, classifying the occurrence of positive negative and
cognitive symptoms. All these domains should be considered as independent symptoms. cariprazine is
a drug recently added to the group of antipsychotics whose differential characteristic is that it is a
partial agonist of dopamine receptors D2/D3. In vitro studies in animals have already shown increased
procognitive activity and not just an improvement in positive and negative symptoms. Objective: To
describe whether patients diagnosed with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder treated with cariprazine
have greater beneficial effects on cognition than when treated with other antipsychotics.
Methodology Systematic review carried out with inclusion and exclusion criteria such as: that they
were randomized clinical trials, conducted in humans, no more than 10 years from their publication, at
cariprazine doses of 1.5-6 mg/day, in English and those published until December 31, 2023. The MesH
terms used in all of them were "cariprazine", "and "cognit" and "schizophrenia" and "humans" as a
filter. Results: A total of 5 articles were selected. In most of them, positive results were obtained in
favor of the use of cariprazine in the domain of cognition measured through the PANSS scale, as well
as on other factors such as positive and negative symptoms. Discussion In all the selected studies,
significant results were obtained in favour of cariprazine on the improvement in cognition, but most of
them only compared cariprazine with placebo and not with other antipsychotic drugs. Therefore, the
generalization of the results to the efficacy or non-efficacy of the use of cariprazine compared to the
use of other antipsychotics was biased. Conclusions cariprazine used at low doses 1.5-3mg/day has
yielded significant and favourable results in terms of improvement in coginition, especially in the
disorganized Marder item of the PANSS scale, but more studies using specific and standardised scales
are needed to draw conclusions about this effect and eliminate biases and limitations.
