  • Title: Nifedipine-haloperidol combination in the treatment of Gilles de la Tourette's syndrome: a case study.
    Author: Alessi NE, Walden M, Hsieh PS.
    Journal: J Clin Psychiatry; 1989 Mar; 50(3):103-4. PubMed ID: 2925592.
    Abstract:
    Anecdotal case reports have been published describing the use of the calcium channel blockers verapamil and nifedipine to provide rapid and dramatic relief in refractory Gilles de la Tourette's syndrome (TS). The authors' case presentation illustrates that, although these two drugs may not always work alone, they can be successfully used in combination with other medications for treating refractory TS.
