Popis: | Although its exact effects are uncertain and the best patterns of dosage and frequency have yet to be ascertained, a combination of scopolamine and methedrine given intramuscularly appears to have some value as a means of rendering young, physically healthy, mentally ill offenders more accessible to treatment when they are participating in an intensive therapeutic community program. It offers a form of control of the psychopathic patient which is superior to heavy doses of tranquillizers or seclusion. In all phases of its employment its effects on the group seem cohesive, providing a focus for concerned and helpful activities. |
