[Preliminary report on the neuropsychological study of women treated by beta-mimetic drugs in a gynecological clinic].
Twenty women hospitalized in a gynaecological clinic for threatening miscarriages were treated by beta-mimetic drugs and examined from a neuro-psychological viewpoint. Disorders in the quality of sleep, trembling fingers and modification in the tone of voice were noted, and associated in five cases, to a slight hypertonia, extra-pyramidal-like. Eleven women had difficulties in concentrating, and seventeen felt distressing changes of mood: mentism, pessimistic thoughts, feeling of being abandonned, and sometimes, beliefs of being persecuted, which in two patients required the administration of Haldol.
