The types of schizophrenia and their presentations are described. Treatment is discussed with special reference to clinical experience with long‐term administration of a recently introduced drug, thiothixene (Navane). Although this was not a double‐blind study, a favourable response was significant in that these patients had not been controlled successfully by other drugs.
