title: [Drug consumption of certain pharmacotherapeutic groups in relation to age and sex. Psychopharmacueticals].
abstract: The paper presents data on the consumption of psycho-active drugs in the urban population, which are expressed by the number of packages and costs. The consumption of the group of agents under study represents 6.2% of total costs of drugs within the framework of out-patient care. The results of a one-year survey have revealed that the curve of the consumption of psycho-active drugs for the whole population after calculation per one person possesses the shape of a 2nd degree parabola. Consumption of psycho-active drugs per one person is significantly higher in women than in man and it consistently grows with the age.
