Poster shows attempt to reduce aggressive and impulsive behavior to drug addicts who have co morbidity, by using medication.

At he Special Hospital on Addictions in Belgrade, Serbia, for the past two years LAMOTRIGIN was introduced as a medicament in prevention of impulsive behavior and aggressive behavior by patients who are diagnosed with F60. 2,F19. 2 Test group that didn't use this medication had 35 patients, same as experimental group, All patients, both groups were given Antaxon, opioid antagonist, anti-depressive from SSRI group of medication, also Alprozalam was given for the duration of 24 weeks. By using Barratt's scale for the evaluation of impulsivity and Stuart's scale for the evaluation of aggressiveness, noted results show that LAMOTRIGIN is medication of choice for this kind of dependency. For the efficient evaluation, questionnaires were completed about eventual interventions (pharmacological treatment, psychotherapy).

After all, the question remains, was the addiction one that caused personal disorder or the other way around but the is less important, most important is neutrlised addiction and destructive behavior.
