This study aimed to explore the conditions and therapy management at the Mental Health Center in Pristina by analyzing data from January to December 2022 and 2023. The research, conducted retrospectively with respect for patient confidentiality, examined the frequency of psychiatric disorders, treatment types, medications used, patient demographics, diagnoses, and side effects. In 2022, 155 patients (79 males, 76 females) were recorded, while in 2023, the number decreased to 110 patients (63 males, 47 females), with average patient age increasing from 32.42 to 38.42 years. Despite challenges in patient care, appropriate treatment plans significantly support health and social integration goals. The data indicate a reduction in psychiatric cases over the studied period, though the predominance of a relatively young age group raises concerns possibly linked to living conditions and lifestyle. These findings highlight the ongoing need for assessment and optimization of mental health therapies. https://biomedpharmajournal.org/vol18no3/pharmacological-treatment-of-mental-disorders-and-the-prevalence-of-antipsychotic-drug-use-at-the-mental-health-center-in-pristina/ Medications Mental health Patient management Prevalence Psychiatric disorders Therapy
