Although a small country, Denmark has played an important role in the development of modern psychopharmacology due to an active and ambitious pharmacological industry, excellent researchers and last but not least, far-sighted clinicians. The most prominent among these clinicians are portrayed here. Mogens Schou advocated throughout his long life for the benefits of lithium treatment for bipolar patients, Lars Gram for the use of drug monitoring in the pharmacological treatment of depressed patients, Erik Jacobsen invented Antabus for treatment of alcohol dependence and later became one of the first presidents of the Collegium Internationale Neuropsychopharmacologicum (CINP) and finally, Claus Braestrup was the first to describe the benzodiazepine receptor.
丹麦虽是个小国，但由于其活跃且雄心勃勃的制药行业、优秀的研究人员，以及最后但同样重要的有远见的临床医生，丹麦在现代精神药理学的发展中发挥了重要作用。这里介绍了这些临床医生中最杰出的几位。莫根斯·舒在其漫长的一生中一直倡导锂盐治疗对双相情感障碍患者的益处；拉尔斯·格拉姆主张在抑郁症患者的药物治疗中进行药物监测；埃里克·雅各布森发明了用于治疗酒精依赖的安塔布司，后来成为国际神经精神药理学会（CINP）的首批主席之一；最后，克劳斯·布雷斯楚普首次描述了苯二氮䓬受体。
