I'm a medical student! Do i need psychotropic drugs?

Resumen

The indiscriminate use of psychotropic drugs among medical students is a growing concern that reflects not only challenges related to academic stress, but also questions about the social pressures and expectations imposed on these future health professionals (DE LUNA et al, 2018). This phenomenon raises ethical, mental health, and academic issues, as the use of psychoactive substances can impact not only academic performance, but also the quality of care these students are destined to provide to patients (SANTOS et. al, 2021).
