Abstract
“A doctor must know not only the virtue of a drug, but also its drawbacks”—Carling (1960).Thioridazine is one of the newer phenothiazine derivatives used in psychiatry. Previous workers have reported few serious side-effects with it. The following pilot trial was carried out on male patients suffering from chronic schizophrenia who required nursing in a closed ward.Keywords
