[Substance Abuse Poisoning Reported to the Poisons Information Centre Erfurt from 2002 to 2016].
Poisoning due to substance abuse has changed significantly during the last few years. Therefore, developments of substance abuse reported to the Poisons Information Centre Erfurt were investigated and compared to other circumstances of human exposures during the last 15 years. ⋯ Clinical significance of substance abuse is shown by the fact that it resulted more often in moderate and severe symptoms than suicide attempts. Data of substance abuse from PICs could supplement those on clinical toxicology in official annual drug reports.
