- The study aimed to evaluate how restrictions on novel psychoactive substances (NPS) affected their usage among psychiatric patients, and assessed demographic details of those using NPS.
- A retrospective analysis of discharge letters from psychiatric patients in Scotland revealed that 6.6% of general psychiatry patients and 3.4% of intensive home treatment team patients had used NPS.
