Title:	Heteroarylpiperidines, pyrrolidines and piperazines and their use as antipsychotics and analgesics
Abstract:	Heteroarylpiperidines, pyrrolidines, and piperazines are useful as antipsychotic and analgesic agents. The compounds are especially useful for treating psychoses by administering to a mammal a psychoses-treating effective amounts of one of the compounds. The compounds are also useful as analgesics by administering a pain-relieving effective amount of one of the compounds to a mammal.
