[Drug-induced dysphonia].

Drug-induced dysphonia is a non-life-threatening adverse drug reaction, however, this complication can significantly worsen the quality of life of patients, especially those in voice-speaking professions. The aim of the work was to search for information about the prevalence, etiology, pathogenesis, and features of treatment and prevention of drug-induced dysphonia. In the case of some drugs, the true prevalence may be higher than described in the literature, due to the fact that dysphonia is in most cases mild, reversible and, in comparison with other undesirable drug reactions, rarely attracts the attention of both the patient and practitioners.
