Introduction In organic mental disorders in people who have undergone COVID-19, it has been established that the complex use of periciazine in combination with paroxetine, diazepam, 3-hydroxypyridine succinate and hyperbaric oxygenation is superior in effectiveness to traditional therapy with an antipsychotic drug, antidepressant and anxiolytic. The inclusion of 3-hydroxypyridine succinate, hyperbaric oxygenation in the complex therapy of this pathology corrects the concentrations of adrenaline, norepinephrine, dopamine, serotonin in the peripheral blood of patients, eliminates hormonal status disorders and humoral immune responses. Objectives The aim of the work was to optimize approaches to the treatment of hypothymic disorders in organic mental illness, to substantiate the complex use of periciazine in combination with paroxetine, diazepam, 3-hydroxypyridine succinate and hyperbaric oxygenation in patients who underwent COVID-19. Methods The object of the clinical study were patients with organic mental disorders who underwent COVID-19. To assess the condition, laboratory research methods were selected taking into account the etio- and pathogenesis of diseases: determining the level of catecholamines, some indicators of humoral immune responses, and the hormonal profile. Results Table 2.3 - Nosological structure of patients included in the study Nosological form Associated hypothymic disorder Number of patients Gender Average age (years) Males Females Organic mental disorder Organic anxiety disorder F06.4 21 15 6 28,7±6,3 Depressive Episode F33 22 12 9 Organic mental disorder associated with COVID-19 Organic anxiety disorder F06.4 18 15 3 Depressive Episode F33 16 10 6 43,7±7,4 Conclusions In patients with organic mental disorders, occurring with hypothymic symptoms, compared with healthy donors, there is a complex of disorders in plasma concentrations of catecholamines. Traditional and, to a greater extent, combination therapy increase the levels of serotonin, dopamine, norepinephrine, both in the group of patients who did not have COVID-19, and in those who underwent a new coronovirus infection.
