Abstract

A case is presented in which a patient complained bitterly of blurring of vision when coming in from out of doors while receiving Mellaril and after having received approximately 30 grams of Mellaril over a period of 2½ months. The visual complaint cleared over a period of approximately 4 weeks after the Mellaril had been stopped. It is suggested that this is an early toxic reaction to Mellaril of the type seen previously with an experimental phenothiazine called NP-207.
