Abstract

The results of treating 251 therapeutically resistant patients with paranoid schizophrenia by moditen-depo, its combination with other psychotic drugs or leponex was compared. The results obtained indicate that a comprehensive treatment (moditen-depo with other psychotropic drugs) and by leponex may be successfully applied to some of the paranoid schizophrenics resistant to moditen-depo and other neuroleptic drugs or their combinations. Comprehensive treatment appeared to be more effective in systematized delusions, the syndrome of psychic automatisms and in a crude emotional-volitional defect. Treatment by leponex was more efficacious in emotionally saturated nonsystematized delusions, pronounced disordered behaviour and mild manifestation of deterioration.
