| الوصف: | Introduction The abuse of prescription drugs (especially sedatives, hypnotics and opioid analgesics) is a serious and increasingly common phenomenon occurring across addiction clinics. Medications are prescribed for the treatment of chronic pain, sleep difficulties or as mood stabilisers in response to the rush of time and demands of performance. The onset of addiction is often protracted and subtle, but has a major impact on the quality of life and the health, economic or social status of the user. Patients may experience, among other things, cognitive impairment, fatigue, sleep disturbances, irritability, loss of motivation, headaches or impaired coordination of movements. This study is focused on cognitive impairment due to prescription drug dependence and how this impairment affects patients in everyday life.
