[Chemotherapy of melancholia by sequential neuroleptic-viloxazine association].

Viloxazine administered as a unique antidepressant may in some cases cause an aggravation of anxiety and agitation or manic states. In order to control this effect, we thought of administering neuroleptics and anxiolytics: 1) Before Viloxazine for a few days. 2) Then during antidepressant treatment. The results were as follow: 1) Quick and efficient upon melancholic states in manic -- depressive psychoses. 2) Irregular and questionable upon other depressions.
