Reseña del editor

This handbook provides information for practitioners who wish to optimise their treatment of childhood and adolescent mental disorders through a better understanding of psychopharmacological agents and improved collaborative options with prescribing clinicians. The volume informs readers about medications proven effective in the treatment of children and adolescents via double blind studies and the various non-pharmacological interventions that have empirical support. In addition to guidelines for the integration of psychosocial and pharmacological interventions, there are suggestions of solutions for the difficulties that practitioners encounter in persuading patients and their families to begin to adhere to a treatment regimen. Furthermore, practitioners should learn straightforward ways to determine the effectiveness of medication protocols and to participate actively in collaborative interventions.
