Extract

Over the past few years, there has been an increasing interest in drugs having a tranquillizing or ataractic effect on the central nervous system. Pharmaceutical houses, both here and on the other side of the Atlantic, have vied with one another to be the first to introduce the perfect tranquillizer, providing relief from tension and anxiety with no unpleasant or dangerous side-effects or tendency to addiction, and at the same time if possible to effect an improvement in the management of, if not the cure of, the psychoses.
