Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The prodromal stage is the period before the full onset of symptoms, and typically lasts several months to a few years. Once a patient has entered the residual stage, it means that they have previously experienced a full psychotic episode but are currently experiencing milder or residual symptoms. This stage may occur after a period of remission, but is not typically associated with the prodromal stage.
