  • Title: Double blind controlled trial of deanol in tardive dyskinesia.
    Author: George J, Pridmore S, Aldous D.
    Journal: Aust N Z J Psychiatry; 1981 Mar; 15(1):68-71. PubMed ID: 6942835.
    Abstract:
    Thirty three chronic psychiatric hospital subjects with oral tardive dyskinesia were divided into three groups. The subjects were matched for severity of symptoms then randomly assigned to treatment with a placebo, 1 g deanol or 2 g deanol per day. Statistical analysis showed that after 30 days treatment, there was a significant reduction in the mean rating of the movements of the group of 11 subjects on 2 g deanol per day. Six of these subjects showed substantial reduction in movement. Further studies using this dosage of deanol are unwarranted.
