The drug used in this case was Sodium Pentothal. A 2 solution was given in-
travenously. The first 10 cc was riven et the rate of 2 cc a minute; beyond
thnt, I cc a minute. The stimulant Was Benzedrine, 10 mg orally. The totel
mount of Sodium Pentothnl was 19 cc of the s40.ution which would represent not
quite 0.5 gm. of the drug.
The intravenous Sodium Pentothal was started at 1100. At 1105, 10 cc had been
administered. At 1107, the injection was again started and this cnrtinued at
1111, 4 more cc having been administered.- At that time, the Subject dosed off
but was easily nroused. At 1117, the injection was again started end this con-
tinued after the administration of 1 more cc. . This procedure of givIng 1 cc
intermittently was repeated at 1122, 1125, 1130 and 1154.
Excellent transference was obtained in this case. de was, regressed to a time
when he attended a party given by the police and he reacted emotionally to that
environment, including becoming under the influence of alcohol which was served
there.
The original plan was to give an intravenous stimulant but the needle had become
�:1or7ed due to a blood clot therein end it was believed to be inadvisnele to have
to make nother puncture, hence, the stimulant was T.ivon orally at 1222 (10 771 of
cn7edrine). At 1235, black coffee was administered. The Sobject was then in-
structed to rest for a half of an hour and then eat his mid-day menl.
The medication was effective as to the desired results. It is believed that when
this particular drug, Sodium Fentothal, is used, the medthod employed in this
case is best, that is, after the initial stage of impaired consciousness be pro-
duced, it is advisa;)le to f;ive intermittently smell nmoonts of the drur: in order
to mainta.in the desired state. Mien using Sodium Yenvtal, however, due to the
more prolonf:ed effect, it is not so necessary to inter-space minute doses in this
wreT. The aftvantage of 50r3ium Fentothal is that it is much easier to have the man
beck in his usual state in a comparatively short time but ine aro not sure thnt
he ninesia vrill be as definite as in the use or Lilo lenr.:or nctinf; drug. In this
pnrticv1Pr case, nmnesis for the 3. I. wns produced. Alfo, Sodium Fentothal is
slizhtly more dnm;orous than Sodium Amytal in the more r7pid production of rcspirn-
tory failure.
