On the Need for Medicine
From time to time, medical science has achieved an indisputable triumph that is pure benefit for all levels of society. The conquests of tuberculosis, smallpox, and syphilis of the central nervous system should be at the top of anyone’s list. But there is still formidable agenda of diseases for which there are no cures, needing much more research before their underlying mechanisms can be brought to light. Among these diseases are some for which we have only halfway technologies to offer, measures that turn out to be much more costly than we had guessed and only partly, sometimes marginally, effective. The overestimation of advance in medicine can lead to more trouble than anyone can foresee, and a lot of careful thought and analysis ought to be invested before any technology is turned loose on the marketplace. There are examples of this sort of premature, sweeping adoption of new measures in medicine. Probably none has resulted in more untoward social damage than the unpredicted, indirect but calamitous effects of the widespread introduction twenty or so years ago of Thorazine and its chemical relatives for the treatment of schizophrenia. For a while, when it was first used in state hospitals for the insane, the new line of drugs seemed miraculous indeed. Patients whose hallucinations and delusions impelled them to wild, uncontrollable behavior were discovered to be so calmed by the treatment as to make possible the closing down of many of the locked wards in asylums.
Summary:
Although medical science has【71】many diseases previously thought incurable, some【72】have been enthusiastically embraced and implemented before their potential consequences have been clearly thought out. One example is the use of drugs like Thorazine to【73】schizophrenics. Even though they could not cure the disease, these drugs【74】patients and controlled their bizarre【75】.
