title: [Drug treatment of various diseases, primarily of those caused by disorders of the reticular formation of the brain stem].
abstract: The author holds that a great number of failures and poor results in the treatment of organic or functional nervous and somatic diseases result from ignoring the role of brain stem reticular formation interacting with vegetative innervation and limbic formations. The disturbances of this reticular formation often contribute to the development of a pathological process due to enhancement or inhibition of the neuromediatory reticular systems. Drugs are proposed able to produce a selective positive action on neuromediatory systems of the reticular formation. Such approach may bring about responses in severe neurogenic and somatic affections.
