Summary
In order to systematically examine treatment practices in Tourette syndrome across Europe-based clinicians, all ESSTS members actively prescribing for paediatric and/or adult patients with Tourette syndrome were invited to complete an online questionnaire covering pharmacological treatment of five symptom domains: tics, attention-deficit and hyperactivity symptoms, obsessive-compulsive symptoms, anxiety and depression. The results the first large-scale survey on prescribing habits for the pharmacological management of Tourette syndrome in Europe were published in the European Journal of Paediatric Neurology in 2012.
