Two cases are presented in which psychotic patients with neuroleptic malignant syndrome were treated with bromocriptine and thioridazine simultaneously, with a resulting control of both problems. The authors feel that this method needs further study, in the light of the potentially large number of patients at risk for these illnesses. The use of creatinine phosphokinase level as an indicator of value in NMS is also discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
