TY - JOUR PY - 1994// TI - Changes in the pattern of deliberate self-poisoning presenting at Craigavon Area Hospital: 1976, 1986 and 1991 JO - Ulster medical journal, THe A1 - Quigley, N. A1 - Galloway, R. A1 - Kelly, C. SP - 155 EP - 161 VL - 63 IS - 2 N2 - Deliberate self-poisoning presenting at Craigavon Area Hospital in 1991 was examined and compared to the years 1976 and 1986. Self-poisoning has not declined over the 15 year period 1976-1991. The reduction in the use of benzodiazepines, and increase in paracetamol, previously reported, continues. Possible reasons for this are examined, in relation to local and national drug prescribing.
