acute intoxication, withdrawal syndrome and overdosing are of great

some specific details in their preoperative preparation whether they
underwent emergency or elective surgery. Good knowledge of the
characteristics of psychoactive substance abuse and addiction, interaction of
psychoactive substances and anesthetics and any other drugs that could be
used in the perioperative period is important especially for anastesiologist.
