Abstract:
The use of intravenous clomipramine gave rise to the remission of catatonia on the third or fourth day of treatment in two patients diagnosed as suffering from affective disorders. Therapeutic effect was maintained on switching to oral clomipramine. Clomipramine could be a therapeutic alternative in the management of catatonia associated with affective disorders.
