[Use of sodium nucleinate in the therapy of schizophrenia].

A total of 102 patients with progressive forms of schizophrenia with a pronounced deficital symptomatology were treated. The dynamics of some indices of nonspecific reactivity (properdin, lysozyme, complement) were studied parallely. Yeast sodium nucleinate promotes a softening and reverse development of some deficital symptoms (mainly in an emotional-volutional sphere), decreasing the threshold of sensitivity to neuroleptics. When remission occurred, the immunological indices returned to normal.
