Patsient s psikhovegetativnym sindromom: pomogaet vrach obshchey praktiki

Psychovegetative syndrome (PVS) is a common problem faced by the general practitioners. PVS is defined as functional disorder of the nervous system, characterized by the disturbances of the general condition and well-being, resulting in decreased quality of life, and manifested by nonorganic dysfunction of various organs and systems. In most cases, the PVS is caused by anxiety or anxiety-depressive disorders within neurotic or stress-related disorders, less often - by the endogenous diseases. In the pharmacological treatment, psychotropic therapy has priority, given predominantly psychogenic origin of PVS. But not all PVS patients are ready to begin therapy with psychotropic drugs. In this case, other groups of drugs are also effective in PVS, for example metabolic agents, in particular, glycine.
