Abstract AR

محاولتا انتحار صاحبتا الزلز الناتج عن استخدام عقار الهالوبريدول.

إحداهما تعاني من الزهو (الهوس) و الثانية من الفصام.

الأولى : رجل حاول قتل نفسه بإطلاق الرصاص ثم بمحاولة إلقاء نفسه من الطابق الخامس في المستشفى و الثانية قفزت من الطابق الرابع.

المحاولتان كانتا بسبب مشاعرهما الغير محتملة بسبب الزلز الناتج عن تعاطي الأدوية المؤثرة عقليا.

و قد قالا بأنها أسوأ من عذاب جهنم.

و قد كان المريضان اندفاعيان.

قد تسوء حالة المريض أو نفقده إذا أهملنا تشخيص حالة الزلز.

Abstract EN

Two cases of attempted suicide associated with akathisia induced by haloperidol administration.

One of them was schizophrenic male and the other was a manic female.

The first patient tried to kill himself with bullet and then by throwing himself from 5th floor of the hospital while the second jumped from 4th flour.

They attempted that because of their unbearable feelings due to (NIA).

They described it as it is worse than the hell.

Both attempts were impulsive.

Missing the diagnosis of NIA might worsen the problem or lead to loss of the patient.
