Abstract
We report on a psychosis caused by application of a transdermal scopol amine patch for over 15 days, in the literature there is no mention of a case in which scopolamine had such an influence nor are any cases r eported in which paranoid-hallucinatory symptoms cortinued 11 days aft er removing the patch.
