Abstract:
The efficacy of physical therapy for cerebral infarction is outstanding. This paper is to introduce that if physical therapy is combined with NA-gic drug-d-amphetamine,the latter will promote recovery of motor function in stroke patients. D-amphetamine can also enhance recovery from aphasia and poor motivation syndrome in patients after ischemic stroke. The recovery of hemiplegia in strok patient after treatment of d-amphetamine is proposed owing to dispel inhibition in the contralateral cerebellar hemisphere. This corresponds to the concept of diachisis.
