The human gut microbiome, a community of microbes that plays crucial role in our wellbeing, is highly adaptable but also vulnerable to drug treatments. This vulnerability can have serious consequences for the host, example, increasing susceptibility infections, immune, metabolic, and cognitive disorders. However, microbiome's adaptability provides opportunities prevent, protect, or even reverse drug-induced damage. Recently, several innovative approaches emerged aimed at minimizing collateral damage drugs on microbiome. Here, we outline these approaches, discuss their applicability different treatment scenarios, highlight current challenges, suggest avenues may lead an effective protection

Gut microbial dysbiosis or altered gut consortium, in schizophrenia suggests a pathogenic role through the gut-brain axis, influencing neuroinflammatory and neurotransmitter pathways critical to psychotic, affective, cognitive symptoms. Paradoxically, conventional psychotropic interventions may exacerbate this dysbiosis, with antipsychotics, particularly olanzapine, demonstrating profound effects on architecture disruption of bacterial phyla ratios, diminished taxonomic diversity, attenuated short-chain fatty acid synthesis. To address these challenges, novel therapeutic strategies targeting microbiome, encompassing probiotic supplementation, prebiotic compounds, faecal microbiota transplantation, rationalised co-pharmacotherapy, show promise attenuating antipsychotic-induced metabolic disruptions while enhancing efficacy. Harnessing such insights, precision medicine approaches transform antipsychotic prescribing practices by identifying patients at risk side based their profiles. This IUPHAR review collates current literature landscape axis its intricate relationship advocating for integrating microbiome assessments management. Such fundamental shift proposing microbiome-informed prescriptions optimise efficacy reduce adverse impacts would align treatments safety, prioritising 'gut-neutral' gut-favourable drugs safeguard long-term patient outcomes therapy.
