Von der hinteren Coverseite

Most psychotropic medications, when prescribed appropriately, are reasonably safe. Although some side effects are common and even expected, occasional serious—and even life-threatening—adverse events may arise.

This pocket guide addresses these serious conditions. Designed to be easily referenced, it features alphabetically arranged chapters that summarize current knowledge of adverse events from acute dystonia and cardiac emergencies to hepatotoxicity and ocular side effects.

Readers will come away with a better understanding of the recognition and detection of adverse events in psychopharmacology, culprit medications, assessment, management, and follow-up treatment—and be better positioned to communicate with patients and improve patient care.
