Abstract:
The Geoffrey Knight National Unit was set up in 1970 exclusively for psychosurgery. In recent years it has become increasingly concerned with the development of medication regimens that might avoid the need for surgery. This has offered a unique pharmacotherapeutic opportunity because all the referrals have severe, persistent and treatment-resistant disorders. The scheme of high-dose and combined medication devised is presented and discussed.
