Abstract

Two hundred and seventy patients suffering from the sequelae of different forms of brain injury have been treated orally with pyritinol 200 mg three times a day for a period of 6 weeks. It has been shown that, compared with placebo therapy, pyritinol produces statistically significant improvement in the clinical and psychoneurological manifestations. It is concluded that pyritinol is a drug of therapeutic benefit in the treatment of the sequelae of cerebral trauma.
