Many drugs prescribed for somatic diseases are capable of causing psychiatric symptoms in patients, especially in the elderly, the demented and probably in those who already suffer from a mental illness. In this study a random sample of drugs listed in the PDR was reviewed. In 65% of the drugs the manufacturer lists potential psychiatric side effects.
