Methylene blue as sedativum and hypnotic um in psychosis

Abstract

The desire to find means to combat the excitement of the mentally ill, as Pfister rightly notes, has long been the cherished dream of psychiatrists, since this symptom is of the greatest importance, especially an uncomfortable complication, from all manifestations of mental disorder; the propensity of patients to self-harm, outbursts of anger of maniacs and paralytics, impulsive actions of catatonic and hallucinants in acute confusion, raptus melancholicus, persistent sleeplessness — all these phenomena are too serious not to stop doctors' attention.
