| Note |
Unfortunately the drugs that can best control mental agitation may lead to other problems…like agitation. The therapy for mental agitation may include the "older" phenothiazines with their classic parkinsonism-like symptoms of agitation. Or your patient might be taking the "newer" phenothiazines, and exhibit symptoms of agitation such as neck muscle rigidity, torticollis, tongue protrusion, difficulty swallowing, arched back and oculogyric crisis. In either case, you can depend on PACITANE to control the symptoms without the necessity of reducing or discontinuing the tranquilizer dosage. PACITANE Tablets |
