title: [New long-acting treatment of anxiety and its different forms of somatization: low-dose fluspirilene].
abstract: After pharmacological considerations on fluspirilene, a diphenylbutylpiperidinic neuroleptic with a tranquillizing action in neurotic syndromes, the Authors refer on 24 patients with a normal social behaviour treated with low dosage. I.M. weekly dosages of 1.5 mg have been used for 6 weeks with semi-quantitative evaluation of 1-5 psychic items, 10 neurovegetative items and 36 miscellaneous. A significant improvement was obtained for nearly all symptoms and did not cause variations in bodyweight, pressure values and pulse frequency or local or systemic intolerance. Positive results reached 77.3% of treated cases, in agreement with those reported by numerous foreign Authors.
