This paper deals with the problem of overlapping clinical effects of neurotropic agents in treating children with complex comorbidity.
Case: An 8-year old boy suffering from a complexity of symptoms such as chronic motor tics, compulsions, phobias, anxious inhibition, and stuttering displayed the totality of Tourette's syndrome while taking imipramine.
- Sulpiride also enhanced motor and vocal tics.
In the discussion, a review on the neurometabolic mechanisms in tic disease actually known is given, and on drugs proven to precipitate tics, which is the case in a number of neurotropic agents.
Psychodynamics and family dynamics are another issue that is discussed independently.
