Open publisher page 20 citations

Abstract

There is no established treatment for Charles Bonnet Syndrome (CBS). As a naturalistic study, a 68-year-old woman with CBS received carbamazepine alone, carbamazepine plus clonazepam, clonazepam alone, and again, carbamazepine plus clonazepam, consecutively. As a result, the combined use of carbamazepine and clonazepam was most effective. The present results suggest that carbamazepine and clonazepam combination can be useful in the treatment of CBS in some patients. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
