METHOTRIMEPRAZINE FOR CONTROL OF THE ACUTELY DISTURBED
Abstract
Our conclusion is that methotrimeprazine is clinically useful in controlling marked disturbances of behavior in psychotic patients when administered muscularly. It is more hypnotic than chlorpromazine, and it is possibly less anti-psy-chotic. But it is free of the untoward effects to the tissues as no signs or symptoms of tissue damage were observed. It is very helpful in controlling the acutely disturbed patient, including the aged, if the few basic precautions are observed for parenteral use.
