|January 1, 1976
Abstract:
The author believes that many of the chronic patients in psychiatric institutions and mental health facilities could be helped if physicians were more willing to try different combinations and higher dosages of psychotropic drugs than are commonly used. He presents case studies of two chronic patients who were helped by innovative use of drugs and discusses factors to be considered in implementing high-dosage and versatile drug therapy.
