INVOLUTIONAL MELANCHOLIA
Abstract
1. The recovery rate of patients having uncomplicated involutional melancholia treated with theelin in our hospital is above 90 per cent.
2. Larger dosages than were originally used by us, are more efficacious and are recommended.
3. In view of these results, other severe forms of treatment, such as metrazol shock, do not seem justified in uncomplicated involutional melancholia, unless adequate estrogenic treatment fails to give relief.
