title: [A new substituted benzamide with neuroleptic effects: lin 14 18 or sultopride].
abstract: After the research about Sulpiride, a new substituted benzamide has been studied. Although it was characterized by modest pharmacological effects in the neuroleptic identification tests, LIN 1418 turned out to have very interesting therapeutic properties. A study conducted with 50 cases, 30 of which were submitted a systematic pluridisciplinary control, leads to provisory conclusions as follows: 1) its psychotropic effects are powerful and constant; 2) its prevailing action is antipsychotic and desinhibiting altogether; 3) while LIN 1418 appears as successful with all psychoses, whether acute or chronic, up to now, the quality of its results in many chronic psychoses seems to be particularly remarkable; 4) its side-effects are those of most neuroleptics: its extrapyramidal symptoms being all the more obvious as the patient's "passivity" is less important.
