Phencyclidine-induced psychosis: eight-year follow-up of ten cases

H H Wright et al. South Med J. 1988 May.

Abstract

In 1978, we identified ten patients who were hospitalized for phencyclidine-induced psychosis. Over the next eight years, we used their medical records to document their subsequent hospitalizations and psychosocial functioning. The overall outcome for this group of patients was poor, with chronic unemployment, continuing use of illicit drugs, dependence on relatives for shelter and financial support, and repeated hospitalizations being the rule.
