1977 British Journal of Psychiatry Anafril

Anafranil is the most recent addition to the Geigy range of psychotropic drugs. In addition to its use in depression, where it has proved to be effective both by the oral route and by intravenous infusion (in the more seriously depressed patient), Anafranil is becoming established as a leading drug treatment for obsessional and phobic disorders. We will be pleased to forward further information relating to the use of Anafranil in the treatment of depression and phobic and obsesisonal disorders on request. Anafranil in depression. "The most striking finding however, was the number of patients who showed spectacular improvement and who had been ill for considerable periods of time. By and large this group were of a chronic grumbling type who sought much and constant medical attention and yet did not reward the doctor by getting better." "The different between the proportion of patients in hospital who improved when treated with electroconvulsive therapy, conventional antidepressant drug therapy and intravenous infusion of clomipramine was statistically significant in favour of the last mentioned treatment. Patients on clomipramine as a group needed fewer treatments and reutrned to work more rapidly than did their counterparts having electroconvulsive therapy." "72% (of 57 patients) showed a very good or good response and 96% made some improvement. This compares favourably with the response of similar groups of severely depressed patients to E.C.T. and it is postulated that intravenous chlorimipramine can be offered as an alternative form of treatment." "Oral group: 78 per cent showed a very good or good response and 96 per cent improved to some extent. This also compared favourably with the results obtained with other antidepressant drugs in similar groups of patients."Anafranil in obsessional/phobic disorders. "Clomipramine has the two distinct properties of being an anti-depressive and an anti-obsessional drug." "Obsessional illnesses have always been notorious for their resistance to treatment and phobic states, especially when they are diffuse and polysymptomatic, do not respond always to deconditioning or flooding techniques…A treatment which offers brevity with a 70% chance of disappearance or considerable reduction in symptoms is worth offering to patients as a first choice of therapies." "It is our view that clomipramine not only gives good results in severe and moderate depressive states, but it is emerging as the treatment of choice in obsessive compulsive disorders and phobic states." "The mode of action of Anafranil is unknown but without doubt it appears to exert a beneficial effect on neurotic responses in general and phobic and obsessional states in particular.", Clomipramine, Geigy, text only- Ad contains a bunch of quotes from studies.

1977 British Journal of Psychiatry Artane
-
There is no such thing as 'simple' Parkinsonism. The Parkinson syndrome is complex and often gives rise to considerable disagreement over its classification and treatment. Artane (benzhexol) is still one of the most versatile antiparkinsonism drugs available after twenty years of clinical use. When levodopa is indicated, concomitant administration of Artane often improves therapeutic results. Artane also protects from distressing drug-induced extrapyramidal effects where levodopa is ineffective. Side effects an important consideration in any long term treatment are comparatively few. This makes Artane one of the most acceptable drugs available for the treatment of Parkinsonism. The economical price also makes Artane an attractive alternative when the routine management of the condition is being considered. Artane the versatile antiparkinsonism drug., Benzhexol, Lederle, The close up of an older women's face shaded in blue; she has a fearful look on her face. A maze covers her face.

Ativan stands out in the treatment of anxiety. Unlike most other benzodiazepines, Ativan has a direct one-step metabolism and is converted almost entirely to one inactive metabolite. Ativan thus ensures a more rapid and predictable anxiolytic response from your patients with fewer unwanted effects.

They work better together. And so do Brocadopa and Disipal when it comes to controlling Parkinson's Disease. A double-blind, cross-over trial showed clearly that patients already on levodopa therapy obtained extra benefit when Disipal was added. Patients show greater improvement in balance, posture, handwriting and the performance of domestic tasks. Symptoms of nausea are reduced and Disipal's mood-elevating effect relieves the depression which is so often associated with Parkinson's Disease. Brocadopa + Disipal greater therapeutic control of Parkinsonian symptoms., Levodopa; Orphenadrine Hydrochloride, Brocades, Two females, performing a ballet dance together.

1977 British Journal of Psychiatry Camcolit

See how conventional and slow release lithium compare. The authors of two recent comparisons between Camcolit and two types of slow release lithium concluded that there is no therapeutic basis for the administration of slow release lithium preparations in preference to Camcolit. As their studies show, there is no significant difference in the rate of absorption or excretion of the two types, despite the disparity in their rates of release in vitro. The authors do state, however, that there are sound economic grounds for preferring Camcolit. In fact, slow release lithium can cost almost twice as much - so in the treatment and prophylaxis of mania, manic-depressive illness and recurrent depression, Camcolit offers maximum therapeutic effect at minimum cost.

So easy to forget. For your chornic schizophrenic patient, oral medication can be a memory test that they so often fail. So easy to remember. Depixol Depot Injection. The problem of maintenance is made easier when you prescribe Depixol Depot Injection, which is administered only once every 2-4 weeks, and provides effective control of psychotic symptoms. This dosage regimen advantage is further strengthened by Depixol's activating and antidepressant properties which make it so useful in treating withdrawn, apathetic, and poorly motivated patients., Flupenthixol Decanoate, Lundbeck, A pill bottle with a number of pills laying outside the bottle.

Disipal has made her a little more responsive to her phenothiazine therapy. The addition of Disipal to phenothiazine therapy enables optimum therapeutic response to be achieved without unacceptable side effects. Disipal also elevates the patient's mood, thus relieving the depression so often associated with major tranquillizer therapy. Drug of choice. Following a three month double blind crossover trial, the authors concluded that, "orphenadrine is the drug of choice in the treatment of drug-enduced extra-pyramidal reactions and depression. Increased response. Furthermore, the authors postulate that "the introduction of orphenadrine in the treatment of a patient whose response to phenothiazines is not maintained, might well results in further benefit." For patients on major tranquillizer therapy Disipal controls extra-pyramidal reactions, elevates patient mood., Orphenadrine Hydrochloride, Brocades, A black-and-white image of a female working on some sort of arts and crafts; she seems to be making a basket out of string with a smile on her face.
