title: [Psychopharmacologic prescription at a public service. Examination of a group of patients admitted to the psychiatric service of diagnosis and therapy].
abstract: The use of psychodrugs in patients admitted to an SPDC over a period of thirty days is considered. During this period two questionnaires were administered, addressed respectively to the nursing staff and their patients. The purpose of the questionnaires was to investigate experience relative to the psychodrug on the part of the patient and the nurse who administers it. The results tend to confirm basic hypotheses: the psychodrug often takes on meanings that go beyond pure biochemical action to become mediators of complex, significant relational exchanges. Precaution in the of the psychodrug must therefore consider biological side-effects as well as relational ones.
