[Health status of the economically active population and drug consumption. II. Analysis of drug consumption].
The authors pay attention to one of the indicators of the health status of the economically active population--to the consumption of drugs. The analysis was based on outpatient records on health and disease in a selected group of 2,080 patients (25.9% of the basic group) in relation to sex, age and work capacity. The drug consumption of persons unable to work was cca 40% of the total drug consumption, whereby a higher consumption was recorded in women. With advancing age the drug consumption in diseases not associated with work incapacity rises markedly. Age practically does not influence the drug consumption on account of diseases causing work incapacity.
