The Fragile Shell of the Borderline Patient *     Stelazine® brand of trifluoperazine HCl Tablets 1, 2, 5 and 10 mg.
* Controls Occasional Psychotic Episodes
The borderline patient may manage a career, family, and friendships, until overwhelming stress causes the shell to crack and psychotic symptoms emerge.
Short-term use of nonaddictive 'Stelazine' can help return the borderline patient to reality by controlling emerging psychotic symptoms.
And because 'Stelazine' seldom causes excessive sedation, your patient remains more alert to other forms of therapy.
Stelazine offers a convenient, economical b.i.d. dosage regimen that reduces the chances of forgotten or missed doses.
Be sure you're the doctor; always write Stelazine® D.A.W.*
