Insulin shock therapy

Japanese: インシュリン・ショック療法 - インシュリンショックりょうほう
Insulin shock therapy
A treatment for schizophrenia. A high dose of insulin is injected subcutaneously while fasting, causing a coma due to hypoglycemia, and 30 to 60 minutes later the patient is awakened by an intravenous glucose injection and given a substantial meal. This is repeated 20 to 40 times, which constitutes one course of treatment. There is a risk of accidents, so it has rarely been used since drug therapy was introduced.
