[Psychopharmacology and psychotherapy: a dynamic therapeutic parallelism to be integrated].
In a brief expose, the author wants to integrate the psychoanalytic data towards a better clinical use of psychopharmacology. Starting from a triadic situation "patient-physician-medication", he proposes a dynamic rather than a static attitude in the patient's approach, aiming at an eventual diadic relation "patient-physician" and, if at all possible, a relative or total independance of the patient. After alluding at the role of the physician, of the patient and of the medication, in such a process, the author refers to intra and extra psychic influence in disease. The concepts of "team approach" and "milieu therapy" are related to the key-role of the psychiatrist and to the availability of competent and well-motivated paramedical professionals in sufficient numbers. The notions of transference, countertransference and control as well as the symbolic of the symptoms are briefly outlined. The author concludes that the complementary elements of psychoanalysis and psychopharmacology will benefit the patient if the clinician knows how to integrate them along with the changing and dynamic process of the illness.
