Psychotropic Drug use in Medical and Surgical Wards of a Teaching Hospital in Northern Nigeria
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 02 January 2018
Abstract
The overall prescription rate of psychotropic drugs in a Nigerian teaching hospital was 33.1%. This was slightly higher among surgical than medical patients. It is suggested that more attention needs to be paid to psychotropic drug education in developing countries in order to ensure a more rational use of these drugs.
