Drug Induced Disorders
Drug Induced What?
Modern western medication has value and like all things powerful, carries a potential risk that any possible side or unwanted effects may interfere with some function of the body. Unfortunately, the mind is also susceptible to these unwanted effects. The view is that these effects can be tolerated by the patient whilst benefiting from the principle target of the drug. In not quite so rare circumstances, this is not the case.
Some antibiotics carry risks which can cause anxiety disorders which persist beyond the length of treatment of the drug. Occasionally psychosis or a brief psychotic episode can be triggered. there is no way to foresee whther or not you will be affected in these ways until it is too late.
