Résumé :
ENGLISH :
Objective : To study the clinical picture and treatment of psycho-organic syndromes in drug addicts. Subjects and methods : 100 patients addicted to various drugs. Cerebrolysin was administered by intramuscular injection in 5 ml doses twice per day to 49 patients on the 14-20th day after the most recent drug use. Results : The clinical picture may be defined as "organic decline of the personality with desocialization", or as a specific psycho-organic syndrome induced by drug consumption. We therefore considered the administration of the peptidergic substance Cerebrolysin potentially useful. Conclusion : Administration of cerebrolysin improves attention and concentration functions, makes intellectual processes more active, and promotes stable, positive emotions. (Review' s abstract)
