In this context, the aim of this investigation was to compare the relative efficacy of clomipramine, fluoxetine and tranylcypromine in the symptomatic treatment of this disorder. Over a span of 3 years (1991-1994). A total number of 150 subjects were treateed by either one of the above mentioned drugs. Results indicate that fluoxetine (followed by clomipramine) was more effective in terms of speed and quality of efficacy on obsessive and compulsive symptoms and produced relatively lesser adverse side effects than tranylcypromine. Tranylcypromine was not very effective in the tratement of obsessive compulsive symptoms. 1994 12 01 14 20 http://ijpcp.iums.ac.ir/article-1-1647-en.pdf

Iranian physicians, under the influence of Islamic philosophy and values, treated mental patients in a very humane, rational, and scientific manner in contrast to the ethos prevalent during the middle ages in Europe. During the dark ages, mental patients were treated very inhumanly and were brutally tortured. However, In Iran, various techniques like music therapy, psychotherapy, different physical and drug therapies, recreational therapies, and employment of legal and medical support, and finall y in the case of severe mental disorders, special hospitals scenic locales were resorted to for purposes of treatment. In this paper, special reference is made to various writers and scholars whose pre-eminence in the history of medicine in Iran is a large measure due to the imortance they paid to mental illness and to the role of the psyche. 1994 12 01 27 49 http://ijpcp.iums.ac.ir/article-1-1653-en.pdf

The materialistic point of view states the human beings and other living creatures come to life according to a specific pattern and constellation of chemicals and molecules. On the other hand, the nonmaterialistic view point emphasizes that the life factor is something more than a composition of various chemicals. The vital life factor is purposeful and is responsible for the continuation and maintenance of both biological and psychological organization in living entities. In bio-organisms, it is a nonchemical agent that has a close relationship with chemical agents and is the source of energy, motivation, and integrity. This life factor can be considered to be dependent on Allah for its existence and functioning. 1994 12 01 58 62 http://ijpcp.iums.ac.ir/article-1-1655-en.pdf
