Abstract

Treatment of neuropsychiatric symptoms with AZT (Azidothymidine) seems to be effective in many AIDS patients. In earlier studies, 204 of 525 patients treated with AZT showed neuropsychiatric improvement. In this presentation, two patients with affective disorder and dementia are described. Both patients showed remarkable improvement of their severe psychiatric symptoms after AZT. The authors recommend treatment of AIDS-associated dementia and psychoorganic symptoms with AZT.
