Extract

A double-blind study of chlorpromazine and promazine was conducted to measure their comparative therapeutic effectiveness on a short-term basis at medium dosage levels, such as might be used for out-patient purposes. The patients chosen, however, represented a more therapeutically challenging group of hospitalized acute schizophrenics in whom a dramatic and convincing effect might offer an evaluation of comparative response.
