AbstractGeneral drug toxicity has long been a concern of physicians. Recently, there has been increasing concern about the psychological side effects of drugs. This paper reviews the literature on psychological side effects of those drugs which have been most studied in recent years. It also includes a section reviewing the literature on miscellaneous drugs associated with psychological symptoms. This review, although not exhaustive, is intended to alert the physician to drug related causes for psychological symptoms which patients may experience while taking drugs.
