Healthcare and psychiatric drug utilization after a suicide attempt in patients with depression: a register-based Swedish cohort study
Patients with depression who attempted suicide had higher HCU and PDU than comparators during the five-year follow-up period. The association between SA and increased HCU and PDU underscores the ongoing suffering of these individuals as well as the substantial burden placed on the healthcare system.
