Extract

Since Delay and Deniker's (1) report on the efficacy of chlorpromazine, phenothiazines have become the cornerstone of treatment for schizophrenia. However, the unreliability of patients in taking oral drugs is a major disadvantage which the introduction of fluphenazine enanthate has helped to remedy.
