Abstrakt: Objective: Based on a history of unwanted drug effects, patients had to undergo a series of exposure tests to identify alternative non-invasive drugs. In our study we examined if psychosomatic factors (in the sense of psychovegetative lability) occurred more frequently in patients with unwanted drug effects.
Methods: For this purpose, 91 patients filled out a series of questionnaires for the assessment of mental factors. The questionnaires used were the BEB (a questionnaire for the assessment of psychosomatic complaints), the TICS questionnaire (Trierer questionnaire of chronic stress), the scale "critical life events" of LRF-LE and the anxiety questionnaire "STAI".
Results: All scales which were used for the assessment of the psychosomatic complaint status (BEB) showed increased values. Chronic stress factors (TICS) and anxiety (STAI) did not play a role. Critical life events occurred more often.
Conclusion: The occurrence of unwanted drug effects is associated with psychosomatic complaints and acute critical life events. This enables the patient to get a complex understanding for the explanation of the complaints.
