"treats"
Tbf he said symptoms, not cause.
"Temporary alleviates" then. It also has a mild, though short-lived, antipsychotic effect, which is thought to be the reason people suffering from schizophrenia tend to be chain smokers at a higher rate than the general population.
Can confirm, had a schizophrenic roommate for a little over a year and I always made sure he had his smokes. Just made things easier for both of us.
Self-medicating is a thing. People will use an imperfect drug if it helps to alleviate their symptoms.
