As the need for mental health services has grown, the number of psychiatrists has declined, leaving a gap that has lately been filled, in part, by Psychiatric Mental Health Advanced Practice Registered Nurses (P.M.H.-A.P.R.N.s). The Manual of Clinical Psychopharmacology for Nurses is designed to serve as both an academic textbook and a reference book for these nurses as well as mental health practitioners, general practitioners, and consumers. Each chapter is devoted to a specific category of mental disorders, guiding the reader through the pertinent symptoms while offering a holistic perspective unique to nursing. The book is further enriched by snapshots of prescribing for various treatment populations, pharmacogenomic information to guide personalization of medication therapies, and rating scales to quantify the impact of psychopharmacological interventions on the individual's treatment. The first and only psychopharmacology text specifically aimed at educating P.M.H.-A.P.R.N.s, Manual of Clinical Psychopharmacology for Nurses merges the fundamentals of medication treatment in common psychiatric disorders with the therapeutic approach of the nursing field in general to create a comprehensive, thoughtful, and exceedingly useful resource.

Many psychotropic drugs are used to treat childhood and adolescent mental illness on the basis of efficacy in adults, despite not being currently approved for use in the young. The lack of approval does not necessarily reflect lack of safety or efficacy, but it does reflect a lack of controlled studies. The Clinical Handbook of Psychotropic Drugs for Children and Adolescents is a unique resource to help you make the right choice for younger patients :
Independent, unbiased
Unique comparison charts (dosages, side effects, pharmacokinetics, interactions…) that allow you to see at a glance which medication is the most suitable for each patient
Instantly recognizable icons and full color throughout
Compiles the latest information from the published literature (scientific data, controlled clinical trials, case reports) and clinical experience in one easy-to-use reference
Includes monograph statements on use in children and adolescents and approved indications, as well as available data concerning off-label indications, findings from open and double-blind studies concerning doses, adverse effects, and other considerations
Succinct, bulleted information on all classes of medication: classification, available products (including US and Canadian trade names), on- and off-label indications (US FDA and Health Canada); pharmacology, dosing, pharmacokinetics; adverse effects, precautions, contraindications, toxicity; lab tests, precautions, nursing implications; drug interactions; patient and caregiver instructions... All you need to know for each class of drug!Many psychotropic drugs are used to treat childhood and adolescent mental illness on the basis of efficacy in adults, despite not being currently approved for use in the young.

This new, thoroughly revised second edition of the Clinical Manual of Child and Adolescent Psychopharmacology is designed to help clinicians provide state-of-the-art care to their patients and keep up to date with the most recent research. It reflects the reality that child and adolescent psychiatry in general, and psychopharmacology in particular, are rapidly progressing fields that are advancing in multiple directions at once. Because pharmacokinetic processes in children and adolescents can vary significantly from those in adults, it is critical that clinicians have access to the latest information on indications, medications, dosages, interactions, side effects, and off-label use for the pediatric patient population. The book offers clinicians comprehensive information and a multitude of helpful features. Specifically, it: Thoroughly describes and explores those elements that are specific to pediatric psychopharmacology and make it a distinct discipline at the crossroads of child and adolescent psychiatry, pediatrics, and pharmacology. Boasts a Contributors list of leading clinician/scientists, whose insight into the latest research findings and analysis of their clinical implications enable readers to incorporate those findings into their clinical practice. Takes an evidence-based approach to controversial issues in pediatric psychopharmacology, such as attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) diagnosis and its treatment with psychostimulants, as well as pediatric mood disorders, including bipolar disorder. Examines advances that have been made in understanding the long-term treatment effects of medications in pediatric populations, including the results of head-to-head medication comparison studies that have been completed since the first edition was published. Analyzes recent studies of combination therapies, so that clinicians will better understand how to treat the complex patients that they see every day. Clinicians who bought the first edition will want this revision, as will those just venturing into the pharmacological treatment of children and adolescents. Utterly current, comprehensive, and compelling, the Clinical Manual of Child and Adolescent Psychopharmacology, Second Edition, reflects the major steps that have been made toward improving the evidence-based practice of treating young people with psychiatric illness.

Maladies mentales - Chimiothérapie ; Neuroleptiques

Malgré les progrès de la pharmacologie, le traitement de la maladie mentale demeure un défi et nous confrontons encore trop souvent des résultats insatisfaisants avec les agents existants. Le rétablissement se définit par la capacité de fonctionner en société, de participer activement à des activités significatives et de maintenir des liens interpersonnels enrichissants, tout en demeurant relativement libre de symptômes. Les patients veulent se réaliser et s'épanouir et l'atteinte de ces objectifs requiert plus qu'un simple équilibre entre efficacité thérapeutique maximale et effets secondaires minimaux. Une approche thérapeutique individualisée doit tenir compte des symptômes, des comorbidités, de la réponse aux traitements antérieurs et des effets indésirables, mais aussi des choix et des attentes des patients. Il faut trouver l'équilibre entre les objectifs et effets du médicament à court et à long terme. Le choix du traitement doit permettre, voire promouvoir la capacité des individus de réaliser leurs aspirations. Cette conférence aspire à contribuer à une compréhension accrue des différentes dimensions qui exercent un impact sur le fonctionnement, ce qui est essentiel pour de meilleurs résultats thérapeutiques.

With this fully revised fourth edition, Dr Stahl returns to the essential roots of what it means to become a neurobiologically empowered psychopharmacologist, expertly guided in the selection and combination of treatments for individual patients in practice. Embracing the unifying themes of 'symptom endophenotypes', dimensions of psychopathology that cut across syndromes, and 'symptoms and circuits', every aspect of the text has been updated to the frontiers of current knowledge, with the clarity of explanation and illustration that only Dr Stahl can bring. Integrating much of the basic neuroscience into the clinical chapters, and with major additions in the areas of psychosis, antipsychotics, antidepressants, impulsivity, compulsivity and addiction, this is the single most readily readable source of information on disease and drug mechanisms. This remains the essential text for all students and professionals in mental health seeking to understand and utilize current therapeutics, and to anticipate the future for novel medications.
