cnn menial hospital pnticnrts mainly because American mental hospital conditions are such that they'd rob every relatively sane people of their tranquility. The suggestion was made to the American Psychiatric Assn, by three doctors whose investigation showed that one of the most widely used of the drugs had very littl.e effect on extremely untranquil patients In English mental hospitals. Their results were so completely opposed to the results of many American investigations of the same drug in American patients

that some sort of an explanation, was very much in’order. And so they suggested one. The drug is reserpine which was the original “tranquilizer.” its “main effect” on mental patients “seemed” to the British scientists to be not on the symptoms of the mental disease but “on the symptoms which arise as a direct result of the conditions which are imposed on psychotic patients — overcrowded and locked wards. Not Convinced “Disturbed patterns of behavior would, we suggest undoubtedly

occur in normal’ people under similar conditions,” continued Drs. Charles P. Gore, George P. Egan, and Donald Walton. "In short, we are not convinced that reserpine or any other drug currently available can take the place of an enlightened approach to the care of these patients'." In Britain, they said, mental hospitals are sjnaller. Locked and overcrowded wards do exist but “ ‘maximum security’ wards are unknown, und there is a growing tendency to abolish all locked wards.” They cited a British study

which showed that “the unlocking of wards produces results as grat-j, ifying and dramatica s those at- j t'ributed to reserpine.” Their main investigation was: with 20 “chronic, intractable” ; schizophrenics who were “exceptionally difficult nursing problems." Ten were dosed daily with reserpine, and the other ten with an inert but identical - appearing pill. Later the first ten got the dummy pills and the second ten got the reserpine. Thus, there were “controls.”
