Abstract

The use of lithium-containing compounds has increased dramatically since their introduction into the pharmacopoeia in 1968. However, there is no evidence of more than transitory decreases in admissions to hospital with mania. Such admissions, particularly for female readmissions, have increased. Reasons for this are suggested.

摘要

自1968年含锂化合物被纳入药典以来，其使用量急剧增加。然而，没有证据表明因躁狂症入院的人数有超过短暂下降的情况。此类入院人数，尤其是女性再入院人数有所增加。文中对此提出了原因。
