Similar to departments of internal medicine, a high number of ADRs occur on neurological wards. The predominant ADRs were those typical of neurotropic medications such as dyskinesia and increased sedation. Due to the age of the patients involved, cardiovascular co-medication is often prescribed and represents an additional risk factor for ADRs. By measuring pathological laboratory parameters the majority of ADRs could not be detected in neurological patients.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
