Patients with mental health issues are struggling to find prescribed medications, leading to calls for coordinated action from health authorities in Romania. Four psychiatric organizations have urged the Ministry of Health and other agencies to address the shortages. They emphasize that the lack of medication can lead to severe consequences, including withdrawal symptoms and hospitalizations. The organizations highlight specific medications that are in short supply, such as antipsychotics and other essential treatments. They stress the importance of ensuring access to these medications as mandated by law, while also noting that similar issues are occurring in other countries like France.
