Abstract

Introduction. The article provides an analysis of the use of herbal drugs (HD) in the treatment of mental disorders associated with anxiety. Throughout life, many people develop symptom complexes that allow narrow specialists to diagnose a disorder caused by anxiety and fear. ICD-11 combines disorders with anxiety or fear as the main clinical feature in this new group.

Objective. Analysis of the prescription of CH to patients with disorders caused by anxiety and fear, along with the main psycho-pharmacological therapy, taking this type of CH.

Material and methods. Analysis of CH prescriptions for patients with anxiety disorders. The article presents studies of the work of specialized departments and hospitals of the Sverdlovsk Regional Psychiatric Hospital in the context of the prescribed therapy by the specified group of CHs on nosology: mental disorders caused by anxiety and fear.

Results and discussion. In the course of the study, it was noted that in the women's, mixed departments and day hospital there are more prescriptions of CH No.2, along with the men's department, which has more prescriptions of CH No.5. Day hospital No.2, in addition to the main therapy, uses CH No.4.

Conclusion. CHs have fewer side effects, and thus, if possible, may be an alternative treatment for anxiety or as a concomitant therapy to enhance the sedative effect of psychotropic CHs. We note that CHs No. 2, No. 4, No. 5 are in high demand among doctors when prescribing concomitant therapy based on the results of the analysis.
