    To determine the frequency of prescribing and the main therapeutic targets of Teraligen in the treatment of Schizotypal disorder (STD) in childhood and adolescence. The sample consisted of 151 patients aged 7 to 16 years with a diagnosis of STD (F 21), of which 31.1% ( 47) of female patients and 68.9% ( 104) of male patients who received inpatient or outpatient treatment at the FSBI NCPZ from 2008 to 2020. The study was conducted by clinical-psychopathological, clinical-catamnestic, and statistical methods. Teraligen was prescribed by psychiatrists to patients with STD in 74.2% of cases, of which in 46.4% of cases patients received Teraligen even before the diagnosis of STD in connection with complaints of neurotic disorders (anxiety, fears and sleep disorders) ( 30), as well as in connection with autistic-like behavior ( 22). At the time of follow-up, 55% ( 83) of patients received Teraligen, of which 63.9% ( 53) of patients were prescribed it for the first time. The applied schemes of prescribing Teraligen for the treatment of anxiety-phobic, depressive and behavioral syndromes within the framework of the STD in a relatively age-related aspect are presented. The high frequency of prescribing Teraligen by psychiatrists and neurologists to children and adolescents with STD at different stages of observation is shown, which reflects the confidence of specialists in this drug. Teraligen has demonstrated a multidimensional pharmacological effect, including a mild antipsychotic effect, providing reduction of a wide range of psychopathological symptoms, with good tolerability and drug interaction. The study of the possibilities of Teraligen, both for monotherapy and for augmentation of the treatment of mental pathology in childhood, remains relevant.
