Abstract
The results of a multi-centre general practitioner trial of isoxsuprine in cerebrovascular disease suggest that long-term continuous treatment of such disease with isoxsuprine may improve the mental function of patients, as measured by serial Crichton Scale Scoring. One hundred and seventy patients completed the 4-month trial, and the improvement in their mental function was such that many were able to be transferred from the group requiring day hospital care to that in which normal home life could be resumed.Keywords
