Abstract

A young manic patient who showed poor response to lithium, neuroleptics and ECT and developed severe cxtrapyramidal side effects restricting the use of neuroleptics in high doses; showed marked clinical improvement with a combination of carbamazepine and lithium with sustained recovery. The case reported to illustrate the possible synergistic action suggested earlier, encouraging the authors to take up a crossover trial.
