  • Title: The psychosedative effect of chlordesmethyldiazepam on anxiety states in neurotic and psychotic inpatients.
    Author: Paradiso L, Rapisarda V.
    Journal: Clin Ther; 1980; 3(3):194-9. PubMed ID: 6109567.
    Abstract:
    A new benzodiazepine, chlordesmethyldiazepam, was administered at a dose of 6 mg/day to 27 patients (18 neurotics and 9 psychotics) with the common symptom of anxiety. The study period was limited to eight days for the whole group, although the drug has been given to some patients for 38 days. Changes in global scores in neurotic patients were determined by administering the Wittenborn and Hamilton rating scales. In psychotic patients the same rating scales were used in addition to the BPRS. A multistimulator was used to evaluate the performance recording complex reaction times (CRT). The statistical evaluation of results shows a highly significant amelioration of all the studied parameters except for reaction times in the psychotic group.
