Naidoo et al. (2003) identified the following potential risk factors for development of osteoporosis in schizophrenia patients:
Factors due to schizophrenia itself
- Poor diet
- Limited weight-bearing exercise
- Smoking
- Polydipsia
Factors due to antipsychotic treatment
- Hyperprolactinemia
- Secondary lowered oestrogen
- Secondary lowered testosterone
Other factors influencing risk of fracture
- Sedation
- Orthostatic hypotension
- Dizziness
- Postmenopausal status
- Anticonvulsants
- Corticosteroids
