Zusammenfassung

Das Arzneimittelmarktneuordnungsgesetz (AMNOG) wird dazu führen, dass in Deutschland in den nächsten Jahren neue Psychopharmaka rasch wieder vom Markt verschwinden oder erst gar nicht eingeführt werden. Dieser Beitrag führt die Gründe dafür an und zeigt Lösungsmöglichkeiten auf. Langfristig könnte das AMNOG – insbesondere wenn seine Maßstäbe internationaler Standard werden – nicht nur zu einer Verbesserung der Psychopharmakotherapie führen, sondern zu einer Weiterentwicklung des gesamten Faches beitragen.

Abstract

The German Act on the Reform of the Market for Medicinal Products (AMNOG) will lead to rapid disappearance of many new psychotropic drugs from the market in Germany over the next few years or their not being introduced in the first place. This article lists the reasons and discusses possible solutions. In the long term, the AMNOG could not only lead to an improvement of psychopharmacology but also contribute to the development of psychiatry as a whole, especially if its standards become an international reference.
