Sedating drugs and automobile accidents leading to hospitalization.

H Jick, J R Hunter, B J Dinan, S Madsen and A Stergachis

The use of central nervous system depressant drugs among 244 people hospitalized for injuries suffered in an automobile accident was similar for drivers presumed at fault for the accident compared with other drivers and passengers. It was only slightly higher in the three groups than it was in the population at large. The absence of an important association in this population might be related to the warnings given to people filling prescriptions for these drugs.
