  • Title: Mania secondary to procyclidine ("Kemadrin") abuse.
    Author: Coid J, Strang J.
    Journal: Br J Psychiatry; 1982 Jul; 141():81-4. PubMed ID: 7116076.
    Abstract:
    A case of procyclidine abuse is described in which the clinical presentation was indistinguishable from mania. The patient was a long-standing poly-drug abuser and was obtaining the drugs from medical sources. Controlled exposure on the ward to drugs of abuse, including a double-blind comparison with placebo, confirmed that procyclidine caused a manic response in this patient.
