Prescribing Psychotropics bridges the gap between the complexities of drug pharmacokinetics and everyday clinical practice, providing clinicians more insight into how psychiatric drugs behave (or misbehave!) once their patients take them. The book also includes a series of unusually practical charts and tables that prescribers will find invaluable as they make medication decisions.

What you'll find inside:

The basics of drug metabolism

What you really need to know about drug interactions

Food and drink effects on medications

Recreational drug interactions

Gender and drug metabolism

Drug metabolism and ethnicity

More than 70 quick-reference tables, charts, and figures
