In a recent-report on one of the newer drugs for mental MntiUL
often called t. artquilizera, a case history deals with a 62-year-014
woman, a victim of schizophrenia, who has been an inmate of a large
■tate mental hospital since 1928. The impact of mental illneM on
our society is perhaps best understood by thinking of the aantorust
metftd out to her as a young worn
an thirty-four years of con
finement as a human vegetable. y
This particular drug, one of
many developed in the past four
years by pharmaceutical manu
facturers, helped to free this pa
tient from most of the terrifying
delusions which had made her by
turns angrily aggressive or dull
and stuporous. Unfortunately,
no drug now known can set her
completely free, but, after 34
years, she is able to care for her
self and observe the world
around her.
For this patient, as for half
a million like her, new drugs
from the laboratories of phar
maceutical companies constitute
progress but no final answer.
But for patients now being diag
nosed earlier and, because of the
new agents, receiving intensive
treatment sooner, there is an
even brighter outlook. ,
Although half of U.S. hospital
beds are still occupied by the
mentally ill, the new drugs are
changing the triads of admis
sions and releases. In 1955, for
the first time in history, the
number of hospitalized mental
patients was a few hundred less
than in the previous year. In
1956 came another reduction,
this time of 7,000 patients, and
last year another reduction of
about 5,000 was observed.
- At last year's meeting of the
American Psychiatric Associa
tion, two physicians from the
New York State Department of
Mental Hygiene unhesitatingly
attributed this stunning reversal
of a seemingly unchangeable
trend to the use of the new
mental action drugs. They noted
that the use of straightjackets
and ether forms of restraint had 1

also dropped by 75 per cent dur
ing the period.
- More important, perhaps, than
the immediate effects of new.
drugs are their uses as tools to
aid researchers in understanding
the basic causes of mental ill
ness. From this research there
may yet come victory over the "
great plague of mental disease.
Meanwhile, drugs now avail
able from laboratories of the
pharmaceutical industry have al
ready reduced our mental hos
pital population by about 12,000
patients.
At an average cost of three
dollars a day, each of these pa
tients cost U.S. taxpayers some
eleven hundred dollars each year.
Multiplied by 12,000, their re
lease from hospitals means a
total saving of thirteen million
dollars.
There is also to be considered
the fact that most of these dis
missed patients are again pro
ductive memb. . s of society, pro-,
dneing goods, buying goods, pay
ing taxes enjoying life.
