Nonmedical use of prescription drugs in the European Union
11 de Outubro de 2016
Nonmedical prescription drug use (NMPDU) typically
encompasses consumption of a medication that is not
prescribed to a user or that is consumed in a manner
not intended by the prescriber (e.g. taking higher doses,
using non-approved routes of administration). It also
captures situations in which the medication is obtained
illegally (e.g. purchased through a dealer or the Internet)
or under false pretenses (e.g. doctor shopping or feigning
symptoms). In addition to the source of acquisition and
the route of administration, the underlying motivations
for use may include using the medication for selftreatment
of a physical and/or mental health problem or
for tension reduction/relaxation/euphoria [1].
