title: [Comparative crossover study of tiapride and meprobamate used in agitated states].
abstract: A comparative cross over study of the action of tiapride and meprobamate in behaviour problems with motor and verbal agitation was conducted on 42 hospitalized patients. Tiapride was shown to be statistically superior as far as its efficacy on agitation and its tolerance as it did not modified the patient's vigilance.
