Treatment-emergent symptoms and behavioral changes were assessed during an 8-week double-blind study comparing molindone and thioridazine in 31 aggressive hospitalized children (ages 6-11). Molindone was found to be as effective as thioridazine in this sample. Adverse effects differed (nonsignificantly) for the two groups, with more sedation in the thioridazine-treated children. Clinical records from 6 adolescent inpatients treated with molindone were reviewed as a comparison group. Molindone is a relatively safe neuroleptic for child and adolescent inpatients because of its short half-life and minimal prolonged tissue accumulation. Additional studies on different child populations are necessary before the proper indications for molindone usage in the pediatric group can be established.
