[Neuroleptic large dose therapy of schizophrenias].

In recent years, the complex treatment of schizophrenia has been extended by the neuroleptic large-dose therapy. Our investigations carried out so far, which reflect the experiences gained in several years with this form of treatment, include 30 schizophrenic patients admitted in an acute psychotic condition. They were treated for six days running with 40 to 120 (average 65) mg of Haloperidol daily. The results of our studies show that the large-dose therapy with Haloperidol as an initial phase of a combined pharmaco-therapy represents a safe, rapid and effective method.

[Inpatient withdrawal treatment of heroin dependence with neuroleptics--an approach to addicts].

The authors present a setting for abrupt withdrawal treatment with the following targets: 1. To facilitate the addicts the voluntary use of medical and psychiatric service. 2. To develop methods for withdrawal treatment, as riskless and easy to handle as possible. 3. To use the time of inpatient treatment for building up confidence in psychiatric services to motivate the patients for a following therapy. Drugs and dosage of peroral and intravenous neuroleptic treatment and possible complications are discussed. Peroral treatment has the advantage of lower doses, easier handling and lower complication rates. The setting and the used drugs seem to be attractive enough for many addicts to contact the clinic on their own account.

[Experience with the use of new Bulgarian psychotropic drugs].

The results of evaluating the therapeutic efficacy of the new psychotropic drugs adepren, didepil, anq tempalgin made by the "Farmakhim" plant (the People's Republic of Bulgaria) are presented. Clinical trials revealed new facts that allowed to expand the scope of the indications for use formulated in the "Farmakhim" recommendations. It was found that Adepren could be used with success (in addition to the indications suggested by "Farmakhim") in the treatment of patients with depressive-paranoid paroxysms of periodic schizophrenia taking its course in the presence of general depression, as well as patients with somatogenic lingering astheno-depressive states. The therapeutic efficacy of didepil (an antiepileptic) was found to be in a direct relationship with the disease duration, character of the attacks, presence or absence of epileptic chandes of personality. The effect was the best in cases of a short duration of the disease and absence of gross epileptic personality changes, when the paroxysmal disorders were confined mostly to grand mals. A new scheme for arresting the epileptic status with didepil solution is offered. For the first time the efficacy of tempalgin in the treatment of patients suffering from alcoholic abstinence syndrome was substantiated. Optimal doses of the drugs have been determined with regard to the disease nosology and the leading syndrome. Contraindications to the use of the drugs have also been formulated.

[The influence of neuroleptic drugs on urinary excretion of non-protein nitrogen (author's transl)].

During treatment with thioxanthenes or phenothiazines of schizophrenic patients non-protein nitrogen in urine was measured. The values were calculated in relation to the excretion of creatinine. a) Flupentixol or fluphenazine applied in optimal dosage, increased the excretion of urea and the amino acids asp, glu + gln, and gly. b) Moreover, if the drug induced a parkinsonoid (thioridazine) the excretion of ser and thr was increased, too. The usual desalting procedure by ion-exchanging resins before chromatography increases the contents of several amino acids, e.g. asp, asn, ala, gly, cys, ser, thr, indicating a breakdown of some instable products.
