[Preventive effect of dipropylacetamide in bipolar manic-depressive psychoses].

Dipropylacetamide (DEPAMIDE) was administered to 60 patients with bipolar manic-depressive psychoses. The dosage was 900 mg per day, administered orally. In 5 (8%) of the patients gastrointestinal disorders were observed. Administration of lithium carbonate results in undesirable side-effects in 50% of the cases. Our clinical experience shows dipropylacetamide to have a considerably slighter toxic effect on the human organism than lithium carbonate. We regard Dipropylacetamide (DEPAMIDE) as a valuable and significant addition in the prophylaxis of affective disorders, notably bipolar manic-depressive psychoses.

[Clinical experiences with depot neuroleptics].

Starting out from an assessment of the course of the disease in the case of 27 patients with acute or sub-acute schizophrenia, and 9 suffering from a paraphrenia and 6 patients with paranoic atypical psychoses, an attitude was established with regard to the therapeutic effectiveness of Fluphenazin-Dekanoat, Fluphenazin-Oenanthat and Flupenathixol-Dekanoat. No important distinctions between the combinations appeared. Long-term treatment with depot neuroleptica proved itself a suitable and valuable addition to anti-psychotic therapy. In the case of several patients uninterrupted remissions lasting over 3 years were achieved.
